Silicon Photonics

Silicon Photonics is a subfield of integrated optics and photonics that exploits silicon-based semiconductor platforms to generate, guide, modulate, and detect optical signals, typically at telecommunication wavelengths, using CMOS-compatible fabrication for dense on-chip photonic integration.
