Fueling the AI Revolution: Silicon Photonics Book 2.0
Tuesday, October 14, 2025 at 9:35PM How is silicon photonics powering the AI revolution and benefitting industries from autonomous vehicles to healthcare? A new edition of the book, Silicon Photonics: Fueling the Information Revolution will reveal the answers.
A decade ago, the editor of Gazettabyte and Daryl Inniss, now Principal Market Analyst at LightCounting Market Research, wrote the book: Silicon Photonics: Fueling the Information Revolution, published by Morgan Kaufmann, part of Elsevier.
We are delighted to report that we have agreed with the publisher to proceed with a second edition.
Many of the arguments about how silicon photonics would develop, as made in the first book, have come to pass. But much has also changed, AI’s phenomenal rise and the emergence of massive AI computing clusters that work only because of photonics enabling their vast networking needs.
While AI will be the primary driver of silicon photonics in the coming years, the book will touch on emerging non-datacom/telecoms applications for silicon photonics such as Lidar and biosensors.
