Applications
Several markets are enabled by optics and photonics, and thus integration can benefit multiple applications. Optical integration can be applied in different forms for almost any optical system you can think of. Below you will find an overview of optical applications currently enabled by photonic integration.
- Optical Communications: FTTx and access networks, microwave/RF photonics, long-haul and transport networks, optical datacom
- Optical Signal Processing: optical metrology, optical instrumentation, optical communications, quantum optics
- Sensing: structural engineering, chemical sensors, transport and aerospace, energy and utilities
- BioPhotonics: medical instrumentation, photonic lab-on-a-chip, analytics and diagnostics, optical biosensors
