🤝 Fraunhofer IZM develops solutions in and on glass for applications in data communication, sensor technology and quantum technologies – and actively seeks dialogue with industry partners and customers.
Our scientists are researching industry-oriented solutions to these challenges and will present some of them in this series of online seminars:
• How photonic wire connections can close the gaps in photonic packages
• Strategies for passive and active alignment
• Technology for integrated photonics for the next generation of glass core substrates
🎤Next Session:
• Mar 10, 2026 | Julian Schwietering
"Integrated Photonics for the Next Generation of Glass Core Substrates"
The Expert Sessions consists of a presentation, followed by an opportunity for you to actively engage in discussion with our researchers by asking questions!

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).
