Imec has 1 confirmed speaker in a plenary event:

• OPTO Plenary - 29 January 2024 • 8:00 AM - 10:10 AM PST | Moscone Center, Room 207/215 (Level 2 South) - 8:10 AM - 8:50 AM: Silicon photonics: the quest for sustainable growth by Roel Baets
  Over the past 20 years silicon photonics has made a successful transition from academic research field to industrial ecosystem. Transceiver products thrive in the market. Industrial foundries offer mature process flows and PDKs. EDA-companies offer photonic IC design tools. Nevertheless, in many ways, silicon photonics is still a small niche field in the semiconductor industry. Meanwhile, both the research community and a multitude of start-up companies are preparing the next wave in silicon photonics, with scientific achievements and innovative products in a dozen new applications and markets, some of which may become large volume. The value proposition is clear. But the diversity of applications requires new functionalities and new – more heterogeneous - process flows. Will the business proposition follow and become sustainable?

Imec has 3 talks at the Industry event:

• Silicon-Nitride Based Photonics for Visible-Light Bio Applications - January 28th -  2:45 PM - 3:15 PM PST | Moscone Center, Expo Stage, Hall DE (Exhibit Level) - by Pol Van Dorpe, Fellow Life Sciences
• Metasurface Color Splitters for Highly Efficient Image Sensors - 31 January 2024 - 11:45 AM - 12:15 PM PST | Moscone Center, Expo Stage, Hall DE (Exhibit Level) - by Robert Gehlhaar, Principal Member of Technical Staff
• Quantum Computing, A Strategic Technology Enabled by Photonics - February 1st -  11:45 AM - 12:15 PM PST | Moscone Center, Expo Stage, Hall DE (Exhibit Level)  - by Saurav Kumar, Business Development Manager
