Photonics Europe Digital Forum: silicon photonics to make waves beyond telecoms

Virtual conference hears that new applications and markets will likely eclipse current use of the technology in communications. PICs for life sciences Silicon photonics has “endless potential” in applications beyond its current use in telecoms and datacoms, and is likely to create major new markets as the technology migrates to different wavelength regimes. That was one of the key messages from Ghent University professor Roel Baets, in a conference presentation for this week’s SPIE Photonics Europe Digital Forum . The virtual conference is taking place this week, as a replacement for the original event planned for Strasbourg, and features more ...
