Dylan McGuire, R&D Director, Ansys </h5> <p class="c-desc c-font-16 c-font-thin mb-0">Enabling the era of AI and machine learning is contingent on our ability to process an astronomical amount of data using technology that is fast and sustainable. Optical interconnects packaged within the same 3DIC stack as the computational core holds the key to achieving this. The next generation of system engineers require tools that provide multiphysics solutions for evaluating the optical coupling as well as the signal, power, and structural integrity of these densely packaged, multi-die, electro-optical systems to ensure high-bandwidth, low power, and low latency. In this talk, we will show how recent developments at Ansys are enabling the design and optimization of co-packaged optics, programmable PICs for AI, and photonic circuits for quantum computing. We will demonstrate how GPU-accelerated FDTD simulations are unlocking new scales for photonic device design in advanced technologies, highlighting innovations that are crucial for meeting the demands of modern AI and future computing technologies.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row mb-2"> <div class="c-content-product-2 c-bg-white"> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="c-border pt-3 pr-3 pb-3 pl-3 clearfix c-bg-white"> <div class="float-right speaker-abstract-image hidden-sm hidden-xs"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/photo/resized/bdcc756004d4c7611c4e40b083883d40.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/logo/web/resized/a98fc42772db574a449a1b3116255689.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> </div> <div class="c-info-list"> <h3 class="c-title c-font-bold c-font-22 c-font-dark mt-0 mb-0">Breaking the Bottleneck: High-Volume Manufacturing of TFLN PICs for Telecom & Datacom</h3> <h5 class="c-font-dark c-font-18 mt-0 mb-0"> Presented by Amir Ghadimi, CEO, Lightium </h5> <p class="c-desc c-font-16 c-font-thin mb-0">As demand for AI, cloud computing, and data-intensive applications are increasing exponentially, the demand for faster, more efficient data optical interconnects skyrockets. Traditional silicon or III-V semiconductor-based transceivers are hitting an upper physical limit, creating critical bottlenecks in telecom and datacom infrastructure. Thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonic integrated circuits (PICs) have emerged as a new platform to offer a breakthrough—combining ultra-high performance such as 400G/lane with lower power consumption. However, scaling the manufacturing of this game-changing technology for high-volume production hasn’t happened yet. In this talk, Lightium's CEO, Dr. Amir Ghadimi, will explore the challenges and opportunities of the TFLN platform, from material processing to CMOS-compatible fabrication and Lightium's journey to set up a production-grade foundry for the TFLN platform in a 200mm commercial silicon line.

Current photonic packaging solutions are often bespoke, and to reduce costs tooling and processes need to be standardized as they are in the electronics industry. With the recent 400million euro announcement of PIXEurope – a consortium to lead the European Pilot Line on Advanced PICs – from the European Commission and Chips JU, we move towards open-access standardization of the complete ecosystem, including design, chip fabrication and hybrid integration, packaging, and test and reliability technologies. In this panel session, we’ll discuss how the packaging and test design rules will be developed alongside established foundry PDKs to converge onto a photonic-electronic integrated system ready for volume manufacturing.</p> <div class="row mt-3"> <div class="col-12 col-sm-4 col-lg-3 mb-2"> <div style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.5);"> <div class="pt-1 pr-2 pb-1 pl-1 text-center c-font-white c-bg-black">MODERATOR</div> <div class="text-center pt-2 pr-2 pb-2 pl-2"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/photo/resized/a8578a9f0fff7665c66ddc3a961af102.jpg" height="80"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/logo/web/resized/dc371dda2c1476585878ef56b3d03df0.jpg" height="80" class="ml-1"> <div class="mt-1"> <strong>Jon Pugh</strong><br> OPTICA </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-sm-4 col-lg-3 mb-2"> <div style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.5);"> <div style="background-color:#00a0dd;" class="pt-1 pr-2 pb-1 pl-1 text-center c-font-white">PARTICIPANT</div> <div class="text-center pt-2 pr-2 pb-2 pl-2"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/photo/resized/d202d2c2a494847f8356041d3115bdb3.jpg" height="80"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/logo/web/resized/831ba67e8ec34f178dd5a0e2b1e55151.jpg" height="80" class="ml-1"> <div class="mt-1"> <strong>Andon Bano</strong><br> ficonTEC </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-sm-4 col-lg-3 mb-2"> <div style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.5);"> <div style="background-color:#00a0dd;" class="pt-1 pr-2 pb-1 pl-1 text-center c-font-white">PARTICIPANT</div> <div class="text-center pt-2 pr-2 pb-2 pl-2"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/photo/resized/28945b0f8df04ece6820a38447055735.jpg" height="80"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/logo/web/resized/96276d4696f6d623cfd995a33723aebb.jpg" height="80" class="ml-1"> <div class="mt-1"> <strong>Philippe Soussan</strong><br> imec </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row mb-2"> <div class="c-content-product-2 c-bg-white"> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="c-border pt-3 pr-3 pb-3 pl-3 clearfix c-bg-white"> <div class="float-right speaker-abstract-image hidden-sm hidden-xs"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/photo/resized/97d02fc4bc8812e96d83737b7c3080ad.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/logo/web/resized/21f06a929e67411456b9a728d69ed664.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> </div> <div class="c-info-list"> <h3 class="c-title c-font-bold c-font-22 c-font-dark mt-0 mb-0">Advancing TFLN PICs to Meet Market Demand and Scale Production</h3> <h5 class="c-font-dark c-font-18 mt-0 mb-0"> Presented by Hamed Sattari, CEO, CCRAFT </h5> <p class="c-desc c-font-16 c-font-thin mb-0">Thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) is emerging as a key platform for next-generation PICs.

Whether the challenge is to accommodate new applications for billions of ever-higher-quality cameras, or to package and deploy next-generation AI chips with photonic connections to high bandwidth RAM, or to simply keep up with humanity’s insatiable appetite for connectivity, the trends are turning relentlessly vertical. The challenge is that the numbers add up to a thousand-fold step-function in industry productivity. And yield and losses must be addressed, painfully costly processes must be attacked, and that three-order-of-magnitude increase in productivity must be scaled, all at the same time. What new approaches, tools and technologies have emerged to enable the necessary pace? In this talk we identify some commonality among the challenges presented by the diverse applications and technologies the photonics world is pursuing.

In this physical alternative to our conventional computational cryptographic schemes, remote parties communicate information encoded onto the quantum states of single photons, which enables information leakage to be precisely quantified and ensures maximal levels of confidentiality of the channel used for key exchange. While this technology has matured from theoretical concepts to field trials and commercial products in recent years, the required optical hardware is currently expensive and bulky, and offers limited scalability. Photonic integrated circuits (PICs) promise a route to scalability and industrialisation that will allow QKD to become a pervasive technology within society. In recent years, Toshiba actively contributed to establish PICs as a viable technology for QKD. Through a series of key results obtained at the Cambridge Research Lab, we will review how monolithic integration, hybrid integration and advanced laser technology can be used efficiently to engineer state-of-the-art QKD systems able to address complex deployment challenges in all segments of our optical communication networks.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row mb-2"> <div class="c-content-product-2 c-bg-white"> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="c-border pt-3 pr-3 pb-3 pl-3 clearfix c-bg-white"> <div class="float-right speaker-abstract-image hidden-sm hidden-xs"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/photo/resized/db34b41986ad7506c0f90b836af17fad.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/logo/web/resized/4612eb57918208b5eaa32aaf4d22f40c.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> </div> <div class="c-info-list"> <h3 class="c-title c-font-bold c-font-22 c-font-dark mt-0 mb-0">Modular, Fibre-Interconnected Architectures for Photonic Quantum Computers</h3> <h5 class="c-font-dark c-font-18 mt-0 mb-0"> Presented by Thien-An Nguyen, CTO, Orca Computing </h5> <p class="c-desc c-font-16 c-font-thin mb-0">Integrated photonics is essential for scaling future quantum systems, particularly photonic quantum computers, from tens to hundreds of thousands of channels.

These silicon nitride PICs demonstrate strong potential for the realization of high-performance, portable, and cost-effective OCT devices, which could facilitate decentralized retinal diagnostics.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row mb-2"> <div class="c-content-product-2 c-bg-white"> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="c-border pt-3 pr-3 pb-3 pl-3 clearfix c-bg-white"> <div class="float-right speaker-abstract-image hidden-sm hidden-xs"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/photo/resized/977d8de39dfb1ba9a3c14716dcb5954d.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> <img src="https://angel-tech.net/storage/people/logo/web/resized/ee3cad8d3972d00fb8c69309e8825041.jpg" height="80" class="c-border ml-2"> </div> <div class="c-info-list"> <h3 class="c-title c-font-bold c-font-22 c-font-dark mt-0 mb-0">The Future of PICs in Agrifood, Healthcare & Industrial Sensing</h3> <h5 class="c-font-dark c-font-18 mt-0 mb-0"> Presented by Peter van Arkel, CTO, PhotonDelta </h5> <p class="c-desc c-font-16 c-font-thin mb-0">Deep tech developments like PICs are by definition a key-enabling building block in systems suitable for many different applications.
