Synopsis

From design and simulation through to testing and fabrication, this hands-on introduction to silicon photonics engineering equips students with everything they need to begin creating foundry-ready designs. In-depth discussion of real-world issues and fabrication challenges ensures that students are fully equipped for careers in industry. Step-by-step tutorials, straightforward examples, and illustrative source code fragments guide students through every aspect of the design process, providing a practical framework for developing and refining key skills. Offering industry-ready expertise, the text supports existing PDKs for CMOS UV-lithography foundry services (OpSIS, ePIXfab, imec, LETI, IME and CMC) and the development of new kits for proprietary processes and clean-room based research. Accompanied by additional online resources to support students, this is the perfect learning package for senior undergraduate and graduate students studying silicon photonics design, and academic and industrial researchers involved in the development and manufacture of new silicon photonics systems.

About this title

Review:

'This publication's wide variety of topics should stimulate people to read and discover the sensing potential of optical fiber and devices. This book is a comprehensive introduction to the field with a strong practical focus that undergraduate and graduate students will find useful. It could also serve as a reference for scientists and engineers who are working in the optical fiber sensing area.' Lisa Tongning Li, Optics and Photonics News
