Photonic integration exploits wafer-scale mass-production and opens the possibility to realize powerful photonic integrated circuits (IC) that comprise hundreds of individual devices. Similar to fabless fabrication in microelectronics, photonic integration is based on an emerging system of photonic foundry services that can be jointly accessed by a large community of users. These photonic foundries offer standardized fabrication processes, software design kits with component libraries, packaging solutions and test facilities, thereby obviating the need for costly proprietary design and fabrication technologies. This significantly lowers barriers of entry for users from both industry and academia.
The symposium will give an overview on currently available integration and packaging platforms and introduce software tools for photonic IC design. Application examples will be presented to illustrate the versatility and potential of photonic integration and to trigger stimulating discussions on the opportunities arise from this emerging technology.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
