Five Common Design Mistakes Can Send PIC Packaging Costs Skyrocketing

We have all heard that photonic integrated circuits (PICs) can pack a ton of functionality into high-performance, energy-efficient, and low-cost microchips, as well as the promise that they will enable a revolution of powerful optoelectronic devices for a host of applications. However, the complexity of transforming chips into functional devices is often underestimated and the cost of PIC packaging can take a notoriously big chunk out of the development budget.  Read Article 
On-Chip Lidar Sheds Cost, Size, and Power Use to Expand Adoption

Chip-based lidar is poised to revolutionize an already fast-emerging technology sector. Unlike conventional systems, chip-based lidar can be fabricated using standard semiconductor manufacturing techniques, allowing for significant cost reduction, smaller form factors, and more scalable manufacture.  Read Article

Precision Automation Principles for the Optimal Testing and Packaging of PIC Devices

Production-scale testing of silicon photonic devices continues to be a challenge due to the multi-degree-of freedom, high-precision, optical alignments required for wafer- and die-level testing. Wide variances in chip designs and coupling features complicate test procedures, making it difficult to identify a system capable of producing repeatable measurements across various topologies. Brett Heintz of Aerotech Inc. provides a guide for selecting precision motion equipment to minimize the impact of positioning errors on optical alignment test results. Presented by Aerotech.
