We use integrated photonics to address interdisciplinary problems facing humanity across various domains, including communications, computation, energy, and health.

Traditional high-performance optical systems consist of lenses, mirrors, and fibers used to guide and manipulate light. Integrated photonics is the miniaturization of these optical systems onto semiconductor chips.

Analogous to the revolution of integrated electronics, integrated photonics allows us to move from bulky systems of tens to hundreds of elements to chip-scale systems of thousands or even millions of devices.
