Light is input to the chip via separate grating couplers designed to couple to a 30 μm-diameter beam; light is focused onto these couplers by a lens (with a focal length of 15 cm) at an angle of –37° ...

How researchers are employing advanced materials and semiconductor techniques to address electro-optical needs. How they developed photonic IC (PIC) circuit elements including power couplers, phase ...

Based on observation of exponential growth of number of transistors on an integrated circuit chip, Moore's Law predicted in 1965 that transistors will halve in size every 18 months. Although this ...

I often wonder if there is something beyond our grasp and perhaps “other-worldly” about elemental Silicon (Si), which is the primary material for most ICs and discrete semiconductors work. Yes, there ...
