NanoPhotonic Integrated Circuit (nPIC©)*
NanoPhotonic integrated circuit (nPIC©) is a cutting-edge technology that offers higher performance, higher functional density in a smaller form factor.
A polymeric nanomaterial (dendrimer) serves as a workhorse material.
Multifunctional waveguides serves as a platform to design a number of components.
High power terahertz source and electro-optic sensor, active and passive photonic components.
Application in terahertz spectroscopy and fiberoptic network.
Smaller footprint, higher performance, cost-effective, easier fabrication and transition to production.
