Silicon Photonics Workshop

Silicon Photonics Workshop

Overview

Get ready to dive deep into the world of cutting-edge technology and innovation at the Silicon Photonics Workshop organized by Soitec!

Soitec is thrilled to host an exclusive, private workshop running parallel to ECOC 2026.

This year, we are diving straight into the infrastructure shaping tomorrow's tech landscape: Scaling Silicon Photonics from Foundry to AI Fabric for Next-Generation Gigawatt Datacenters.

The event will bring together pioneering minds and industry titans from across the entire value chain, featuring insights from Lumentum, Tower Semiconductor, IMEC, CIENA, and Soitec.

Stay Tuned: The detailed agenda will be officially unveiled one month prior to the event.

Agenda

Electronic-Photonic Co-Design for Near-Package Optics and Co-Packaged Optics

Guilhem De Valicourt - Ciena

Near-packaged optics, and co-packaged optics provide low-power I/O solutions for AI/ML clusters. In this talk, we review the co-design of electronic and photonic subsystems, discussing their principal benefits and the technical challenges.

High power and multi-wavelength lasers for high density interconnects

Matthew Sysak - Lumentum

This presentation will focus on the role lasers play in high density scaleup and scaleout ecosystems. Critical trends such as CW-WDM MSA and the OCI MSA will be reviewed and discussed in the context of Data center deployment. Recent progress from Lumentum multi-wavelength and high power laser development will be presented

Integrated photonics technology at the crossroad: will silicon prevail?
