About This Webinar
Two- and three-dimensional photonics arrays are commonly used for coupling light in photonic integrated circuits (PICs). With increasing demand for ultralow-loss transmission in applications such as datacom, artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), and quantum computing, fast and precise alignment of photonics arrays to other devices is critical. Darrell Paul presents current industry challenges and limitations as well as automation solutions for achieving ultralow-loss photonics alignment.
Learning objectives:
- To understand the challenges and limitations in photonics array alignment.
- To identify motion architectures that enable improved coupling performance in demanding and high-performance applications.
- To establish best practices for alignment process optimization and production-level performance.
Who should attend:
Automation engineers responsible for designing and building solutions for photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and silicon photonics. Engineers and scientists building next-generation datacom, virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI), and quantum computing photonic devices. Those working in research or management within industries such as aerospace & defense, automotive, biophotonics, optics, communications, and medical.
