About Experimental MPW:
The workshop participants will get a chance to join an experimental MPW where they can choose one of the two laser integration modalities for the fabrication of a laser-integrated silicon photonics chip. Two laser integration options in experimental MPW include:
- SOA integration with silicon photonics chips by micro-transfer printing
- Laser integration with silicon photonics chips by photonic wire bonding
The experimental MPW is for experimental evaluation and it will provide a low TRL implementation of laser integration with silicon photonics chips.
How to join the laser integration MPW?
- Prospects can make an expression of interest to join the MPW during workshop registration.
- Prospects can make a final decision to participate in the MPW offer by December 9, 2022.
- More details will be provided about participation in the MPW offer during the workshop.
