LUKAS CHROSTOWSKI: Computer chips are everywhere-- computers, cell phones,

tablets-- and they have revolutionized our world.

these chips, known as integrated circuits,

began with tens of transistors in the 1960s.

Amazingly, today's smartphone has over two billion transistors

We have a similar opportunity to fabricate

photonic chips, which use photons or light instead of electricity.

And instead of working with individual components such as lenses

and optical fibers, we can now integrate many components

You already know that we're seeing explosive growth in internet data

traffic with a lot of this coming from smartphone apps and wireless devices.

But did you know that behind the scenes there's

an extensive network of optical fibers, photonic components,

and data centers that transmit and route your phone calls and data?

A typical data center has thousands of optical cables moving data

around as fast as possible and with low power consumption.

As we move into the future, we see big challenges

in making computing chips work faster and keep pace with Moore's law.

High speed optical interconnects will be the solution.

Hence you will see optics within computers and even

It also turns out that optical chips can be

used to make other useful devices such as sensors, including medical sensors.

Imagine a future where if you're sick, your smartphone

can perform a complete blood analysis and let

It's almost beyond imagination what you could do with millions

Now, what if you and I could sit down together

and build such an optical communication chip or medical sensor chip?

The key is that you, the participant, design your own chip.

We fabricate it for you using a state-of-the-art electron beam

lithography facility, and we test it using our automated optical probe

And amazingly, we can do this together and online in six weeks.

We will walk you through a simple project that addresses

We will study optical interference and optical wave guides,

and you will design an optical interferometer,

which is widely used device in applications

I've often said that silicon photonics is like playing with Lego,

except that you design an optical structure, such as interferometer,

You get to assemble silicon anyway you like and use your creativity.

If you're an experienced designer, let's use this course

as an opportunity to experiment with exotic devices such as ring

resonators, Bragg gratings, sub wavelengths materials, and slot wave

Whether you're a student or a mid-career professional,

we will advance your skills and knowledge.

A complete design fabrication cycle will open your eyes to the opportunities

and challenges and make for an extremely exciting and rewarding learning

Come and discover what the world of silicon photonics has to offer you.
