AIM Photonics Leadership Seeks Industry Support, Explores Technology Goals

James F. Lowe, Web Managing Editor, [email protected]

ALBANY, N.Y., Oct. 6, 2015 — Just two months after being selected to create a $610 million national manufacturing institute, a coalition of photonics researchers is aiming for a Jan. 2 launch date. The American Institute for Manufacturing Integrated Photonics — AIM Photonics for short — already has an 11-member management team in place, and that group is moving rapidly to bring industrial partners into the fold and chart a course for the organization. Integrated photonics devices, particularly those based on silicon, are expected to be crucial to communications and other technologies in the very...Read full article

    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 reduce the...
