June 19, 2018 iMAPS New England Chapter Meeting & Annual Business Meeting

"Prototype Photonic Integrated Circuit (ProtoPIC) Platform and Applications"

Speaker: Dave (Boris) Kharas Ph.D., MIT Lincoln Laboratory

Silicon-based photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are seeing rapid adoption in datacom applications, enabling  data rates beyond 100 Gb/sec. These PICs leverage silicon (Si) waveguides operating at near-infrared wavelengths where Si is transparent. For non-telecom photonic applications (lidar, bio-photonics, and atomic systems), PICs based on silicon-nitride (SiN) waveguides can be utilized. We present a hybrid integration platform developed at Lincoln Laboratory that enables flip-chip die attach of a wide variety of III-V photonic components with our SiN PIC platform.
