OverviewApplicationsHistoryComparison to electronic integrationExamples of photonic integrated circuitsTypes of fabrication and materialsCurrent status
Photonic chips are used for sensors, such as Lidar, diagnostic sensors for healthcare, instruments on satellites, in telecommunications for fibre-optic communication, among other things. The primary application for PICs is in the area of fibre-optic communication. The arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) which are commonly used as optical (de)multiplexers in wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) fibre-optic communication systems are an example of a photonic integrated circuit.
