Prof. Volker Sorger recently presented his work on “Emerging Materials for Silicon-Photonics Hybrid Integration,” a tutorial presented on November 1, 2016 at the The American Institute for Manufacturing Integrated Photonics (AIM Photonics) Fall Meeting, held at MIT. AIM Photonics is an industry driven public-private partnership supported by the White House and photonics companies in the US. Prof. Sorger showed that emerging materials such as Graphene, and ITO when synergistically implemented into photonic waveguide and optical resonators deliver orders of magnitude performance improvements for opto-electronics devices that are critical for next generation data communication and optical compute engines.
