Back again with the 8th #siliconphotonics summer school from 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲 3-7. The school this year will take place at its birthplace - Photonics Research Group (Ghent University - imec). 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨: lnkd.in/eMefdeiH #siliconphotonics 💪

Congratulations to the #EtnWon team from imec on the publication of an article providing an overview of Micro-Transfer Printing for Heterogeneous Si Photonic Integrated Circuits. ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/99535… #openaccess #H2020

Our Photonic Chip Demo Day has started. Room is fully packed! After the talks by Photonics UGent and industry, the actual demo tour will start to show real life applications of integrated silicon photonics chips.

A must watch: youtu.be/wrdqsMqmAig #ITFWorld2023 #ITFWorld imec NVIDIA

Congrats to Jing Zhang with the Best Paper Award with his paper entitled "O-band GaAs QD-on-Si integrated optical amplifier realized using micro-transfer printing" at OECC'2023.

Dive into our recent paper on present and future of micro-transfer printing #uTP for photonic integrated circuits #PIC. Explore our vision and how we're advancing integration across different materials on the silicon photonic platform #SiPh Photonics UGent imec

PHORMIC is proudly co-organizing the ePIXfab workshop on Heterogeneous Integration on 23-24 April in Paris-Saclay, hosted by Thales. Join us to learn more about the integration of low-power MEMS and transfer-printed lasers on IMEC's silicon photonics. epixfab.eu/trainings/upco…

Photonics UGent is looking for a new PhD researcher with excellent vision to work on new LiDAR architectures in the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions NITELIDAR project. photonics.intec.ugent.be/contact/vacanc…

Are you tired of feeling like a complete ignoramus on Silicon Photonics? ePIXfab can change this, in its next Summer school, with world-class experts lecturing on all aspects of silicon photonics. Join us with Cornerstone in Southampton University of Southampton epixfab.eu/trainings/upco…

In a top-scored paper at the OFC 2024, imec demonstrates a compact 32-channel silicon-based wavelength filter, with low loss and high tuning efficiency, enabling a 4x increase in the number of transmitted and received wavelength channels. imec.ambsdr.io/EAvniJpmpp

Our one and only @groelken kicks off the second day of the ePIXfab workshop on Heterogeneous Integration hosted by Thales Group in Palaiseau. Going through the different techniques to stick III-V to silicon photonics, the story converges on micro-transfer printing

@groelken of Photonics UGent explains how transfer printed optical amplifiers can be integrated onto the imec iSiPP50g silicon photonics platform. This is a key pillar of the The PHORMIC Project technology for next-generation photonic chips. Live from the ePIXfab workshop.

Who we are? The heartbeat of innovation, the chip lab of the world. We don't just push boundaries, we redefine them. By fostering collaboration across the microchip industry, we spark tech breakthroughs and bridge the gap between research and market. We, are imec. #futureatimec
