Abstract
Monolithic photonic integrated circuits (PICs) have a long history reaching back more than 40 years. During that time, and particularly in the past 15 years, the technology has matured and the application space grown to span sophisticated tunable diode lasers, 40 Gb/s electrical-to-optical signal converters with complex data formats, wavelength multiplexors and routers, as well as RF and other sensors. Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) has developed a complete InGaAsP PIC capability supporting the needs of U.S. government that may be of interest to industry. This talk will review the Sandia PIC capability and highlight the unique strengths and applications. Examples will be provided from recent R&D activity.
