A Proposal Of Si Photonics For Automobile

Thailand s low-loss silicon photonics technology

TSMC unveils a breakthrough silicon photonics platform at OFC 2025, integrating low-loss, high-uniformity SiN photonic devices to meet next-gen data center demands in speed, bandwidth, and power. Market Forecast By Product (Switches, Cables, Sensors, Variable Optical Attenuators, Transceivers), By Component (Lasers, Modular, Photo Sensors), By Applications (Data Centers and High-performance Computing, Telecommunication, Military, Defense, and Aerospace, Medical and Life Science, Sensing). LIGENTEC process offers a state of the art, cost-effective platform with very high geometric accuracy. The process is accompanied by a complete PDK (available in L-edit, Calibre, Luceda and Synopsys). The PDK includes DRC rules files, and validated simulation film for our reference designs. Example. Imec ofers SiN integrated photonics in diferent flavors: low-loss SiN (based on LPCVD technology) and CMOS-compatible SiN (based on PECVD technology). Our mission is to commercialize ultra-low loss photonic integrated circuits and provide access to this highly specialized technology.
