The number of experienced PIC designers in Europe is still very small, just a handful. With the rapidly increasing demand predicted in the analysis of Figure 7 we expect this to become a major bottleneck in the expansion of the field. At present the market in which PIC designers operate is at an early stage of development. Continue reading “PIC / ASPIC designers, we need you!”
The business case for PIC designers and software vendors
In microelectronics IC designers and design houses form a large group, much larger than the number of people involved in IC fabrication. In Photonics the number of experienced PIC designers is today very small. Continue reading “The business case for PIC designers and software vendors”
The ecosystem for Photonic ICs
Based on the roadmap of JePPIX: Successful introduction of a novel technology requires a close interaction between the users and the providers of that novel technology. Continue reading “The ecosystem for Photonic ICs”
Applications for Photonic Integration
The anticipated large reduction in R&D time and chip manufacturing costs will lead to a large growth in the share of Photonic ICs in the photonic components market. Continue reading “Applications for Photonic Integration”
