AIM Photonics featured in “Shifts in microchip-making to aid automotive, medical,” at Smart Manufacturing
By Brett Brune Editor in Chief, Smart Manufacturing magazine
Does it sound like a big deal to integrate lasers onto photonic integrated circuits (PICs)? What about using silicon to make PICs? And what about co-packaging optics with electronics? Each of these moves is big.
AIM Photonics is figuring prominently in all three dramatic shifts in the making of microchips. And the upshot, according to John Bowers, the institute’s acting CEO, is the U.S. is winning a global battle for domination in integrated photonics.
Importantly, manufacturers embracing artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) will benefit greatly, he said….
