  • Abstract
    This paper discusses the goals and achievements of the electronic and photonic integrated circuits (EPIC) program, which exploits an extraordinary opportunity to create a seamless interface between electronics and photonics. EPIC chips find significant applications in communications, sensors, RF photonics, and wherever photonics and electronics intersect.
