Event Host: Lou DiMauro
Short Description: The Photonics & Nanophotonics Webinar Series brings together top researchers of the world! Photonics and nanophotonics involve science, engineering and applications of light on micrometer and nanometer scales.
As the demands and forms of computers evolve, new hardware is needed to realize different types of computing interfaces. Foundry silicon photonics leverages the maturity of microelectronics manufacturing to fabricate photonic integrated circuits. Today, silicon photonics is mostly used in the short-wave infrared spectrum for fiber optic communication. I will discuss how foundry silicon photonics in the visible spectrum can be an enabling technology for future computing, addressing applications such as displays, neural implants, and quantum computing.
