Integrated Optics: Introduction
• Integrated optics is a system of light-controlling components
combined into a single device. The ultimate aim is to create
miniature optical circuits similar to the silicon chips that have
revolutionized the electronics industry. The advantage of the optical
approach however is that data can be processed at much higher
speeds.
• “Integrated optics is a technology which aims at constructing socalled integrated optical devices or photonic integrated circuits or
planar
lightwave
circuits,
containing
several
or
many optical components which are combined to fulfill some more
or less complex functions”.
• Combining electrical and optical components on the same siliconbased substrates used in the fabrication of a semiconductor chip.
Also called "silicon photonics," fiber-optic communications employs
numerous integrated optics devices, including lasers,
photodetectors, beam splitters, isolators, filters, prisms, modulators
and switches.

The American Institute for Manufacturing Integrated Photonics (AIM Photonics), is an
industry driven public-private partnership that focuses the nation’s premiere capabilities
and expertise to capture critical global manufacturing leadership in a technology that is both
essential to National security and positioned to provide a compelling return-on-investment
to the U.S. economy.
The Institute’s goal is to emulate the dramatic successes experienced by the electronics
industry over the past 40 years and transition key lessons, processes, and approaches to the
photonic integrated circuit (PIC) industry. AIM Photonics supports Small and Medium
Enterprises, providing practical access and technology on-ramps for U.S. industry,
government, and academic communities. We are creating a National PIC manufacturing
infrastructure, widely accessible and inherently flexible to meet the challenges of the
marketplace with practical, innovative solutions.
