EPIC Workshop on Photonic Integrated Circuits
Managed by Optica
09 - 10 Jun 2015
With a series of panel discussions and presentations, this workshop brings together representatives of the PIC supply chain in telecom-datacom: from the application driven specifications defined by some of the industrial worldwide leaders, to optical interconnect manufacturers, equipment and packaging experts, integrated photonic designers and, last, but especially not the least, wafer level fabrication facilities. Ultimately, the aim is to discuss the state of the art and the technological development needed to satisfy the supply chain demands. Topics covered include: 1) The scaling of photonics to high levels of integration with improved performance, power consumption and better process control at low cost. 2) The need of equipment and process towards wafer scale testing. 3) The incorporation of solutions for low cost standardized packaging. 4) Solving electrical interconnect limits in Data centres, Supercomputers and ICs with higher capacity, lower cost optical interconnects.
