Photonic Integrated Circuits are photonic circuits formed on a semiconductor material that allows light to pass through it, such as silicon dioxide, also known as Silica (or Glass). These photonic circuits contain components for manipulating light passing through the circuit, enabling functionalities such as data transmission, sensing, and processing within a compact form factor. PICs are fundamentally altering how we manage and utilize optical signals, paving the way for advancements across multiple industries.

Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are composed of thermal fillers and matrix materials. Thermal fillers are highly thermally conductive substances, while matrix materials are typically used to enhance mechanical properties.

Quantum computers could solve new sets of problems that might otherwise take super computers thousands of years with the advanced technology of quantum bits.

Tuesday 28 November - What is the state of the quantum technology market in 2023? Quantum Computing: Benchmarking friends and foes; Quantum Sensing: Sensitivity vs. SWAP-C; Quantum Communications: Trading on trust

Thermal Interface Material (TIM) plays an important role in power electronics, computing processors, sensors, and energy storage devices. TIMs are the materials used to fill the void between heat sources and heat sinks to enhance heat transfer.

6G, compared to its predecessor, is expected to offer significantly better communication capabilities, such as Tbps-level peak data rates, microsecond-level latency, and 99.99999% network dependability.

Key takeaways from the webinar; Electric vehicles (thermal management and fire protection); ADAS (advanced driver-assistance systems); 5G infrastructure; Data centers; Consumer electronics; Combined EMI shielding and TIM options

Battery thermal management is a critical component to an electric vehicles (EVs) operation. Cells need to be kept cool when under load from driving and charging or kept warm during cold ambient conditions. This enables more efficient operation of the batteries and improves safety.

Wednesday 8 February 2023 - Technological Developments and Applications. Contents that will be covered in this webinar include: An overview of PIC technology; Drivers of increased data demands from data centres; PIC trends in the communications industry; and PIC adoption in other markets

As high-performance computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, and even consumers become increasingly data-hungry, hardware struggles to keep pace. In addition, the need for real-time assessments of moving data points - such as for the accurate velocity-mapping of other objects in autonomous systems and facial recognition for security systems - is crucial to an increasingly hands-free society.
