Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 9:00PM Silicon photonics player, Aurrion, has detailed the making of multiple laser designs for datacom and telecom on a single wafer. The multiple designs on one wafer benefit the economics of telecom lasers by manufacturing them alongside higher-volume datacom sources.
"There is an inevitability of the co-mingling of electronics and optics and we are just at the beginning"
Eric Hall, Aurrion
