Dear Colleagues,

Until recently, our Silicon Photonics (SiPh) target applications were dominated by photonic interconnects for data center applications. Today, SiPh is increasingly a mainstream platform, so we are seeing broad adoption of PI photonic alignment technologies supporting new end-user applications ranging from LIDAR, to wearables, to biosensors.

This trend is driving a massive scaling in SiPh production and-test infrastructure. For more information, see our recent article about this phenomenon in Photonics Spectra:
