Summary
- Improved key metrics for communications (speed, power consumption, density) or for sensing (sensitivity, compactness, power consumption), making photonics ubiquitous in digital systems
- New photonic-enabled sensing functions, not feasible with a technology platform based on a single material, or computing paradigms enabling new systems architectures (e.g. neuromorphic computing)
- Maintaining European technology leadership in the face of strong global competition
Detailed Call Description
Proposals should address one of the following areas of activities:
- Co-integration of photonics and microelectronics on single or multiple die (‘chiplet’ approach)
- Co-integration of multiple photonic IC material systems or components to address new wavelengths and sensor functions or new computing paradigms
Proposals should demonstrate at least two use cases linked to commercial applications for example in computing, communications, robotic and autonomous systems, sensors or Internet of Things.
This topic implements the co-programmed European Partnership Photonics.
