OpenLight industry presentations at ECOC 2024 in Frankfurt / Booth #B130 – Hall 6

OpenLight staff will be making two, industry presentations at ECOC 2024:

1. Monday 23 September: Market Focus Theatre / 10.20 am. Presentation information...

OpenLight CEO, Adam Carter, will present, “The advantages of heterogeneous integrated photonic circuits for AI and Machine Learning applications”.

The explosion of AI/ML applications demands high bandwidth, high density, low power interconnects. The supply chain has struggled to deliver 800Gb using conventional manufacture, showing that higher levels of silicon integration are required to scale. Adam explains how the III-V active devices and passive silicon photonic circuits, available in OpenLights Process Design Kit (PDK), can help solve the problem.

2. Tuesday 24 September: Spektrum room (1st Floor) Session Tu3G.3 / 14.45 pm.

OpenLight Director, Hardware Engineering, Hanxing Shi, will present “Open-access heterogeneous Si-IIIV laser sources for LiDAR and datacom applications”.

Hanxing Shi will demonstrate tunable and DFB lasers heterogeneously integrated in a silicon photonics platform in a open-access BiCMOS foundry process. Si-IIIV DFBs with >40 mW output power and tunable lasers with fundamental linewidths of 8 kHz are presented together with volume manufacturing data and reliability results.
