Collaboration to Scale Up Silicon Photonics Testing for Lidar

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
CompoundTek Pte Ltd., a foundry service provider in silicon photonics solutions, will collaborate with lidar solutions provider Voyant Photonics to establish a high-volume silicon photonics (SiPh) wafer test for lidar. The test is to be specifically designed for automotive applications, as well as other fast-growing applications such as robotics and drones. Wafer-level testing enables faster yield feedback for lidar developers to capture potential excursion while in the fab, as opposed to later stages of development. It also minimizes cost of yield dropout in the later stages of the...Read full article

    lidar
    Lidar, short for light detection and ranging, is a remote sensing technology that uses laser light to measure distances and generate precise, three-dimensional information about the shape and characteristics of objects and surfaces. Lidar systems typically consist of a laser scanner, a GPS receiver, and an inertial measurement unit (IMU), all integrated into a single system. Here is how lidar works: Laser emission: A laser emits laser pulses, often in the form of rapid and repetitive laser...

    1. A localized fracture at the end of a cleaved optical fiber or on a glass surface. 2. An integrated circuit.
    integrated photonics
    Integrated photonics is a field of study and technology that involves the integration of optical components, such as lasers, modulators, detectors, and waveguides, on a single chip or substrate. The goal of integrated photonics is to miniaturize and consolidate optical elements in a manner similar to the integration of electronic components on a microchip in traditional integrated circuits. Key aspects of integrated photonics include: Miniaturization: Integrated photonics aims to...
    optoelectronics
    Optoelectronics is a branch of electronics that focuses on the study and application of devices and systems that use light and its interactions with different materials. The term "optoelectronics" is a combination of "optics" and "electronics," reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of this field. Optoelectronic devices convert electrical signals into optical signals or vice versa, making them crucial in various technologies. Some key components and applications of optoelectronics include: ...
