PI Contribution UCL team is looking at enabling the integration of microwave photonic functionality onto an LNOI integration multiwafer platform. We are contributing RF and optical design as well as chip structure designs.
Collaborator Contribution CSEM gives us access to their multiwafer platform and to a number of runs to develop PICs. They are also sponsoring a PhD studentship.
Impact Two fabrication runs have already been measured. New designs of modulators were developed. This has also led to 2 research grant, one travel grant from BBSRC and one large EU grant.
Start Year 2022
