Photonics Summit and Workshop 2019
13 Nov 2019 - 14 Nov 2019
San Jose, CA, USA
The Convergence of RF and Photonics
Driven by high-bandwidth communications, photonics continues to move from the laboratory and academia to mainstream opto-electronic systems. Advances in photonic integration are enabling high-speed optical interconnects, which are essential for both hyperscale data centers and high-performance computing.
Join Cadence and Lumerical for one or both days of the Photonics Summit and Hands-On Workshop on November 13 and 14 to learn about the convergence of photonics and RF systems.
Who should attend?
- Photonics and electro-photonics designers and architects
- Photonics design project leads
- Photonics design managers
- CAD and PDK managers
Day One - Photonics Summit
Hear from industry and academic experts about the many ways photonics is combining with RF and mmWave technologies to revolutionize the semiconductor industry:

Day Two - Hands-On Photonics Workshop
Time: 9:00am - 5:00pm
For designers who want to get to work, sign up for the workshop on Day Two. Dive hands-on into learning with a full day of presentations and exercises.
Discover the basics of designing a real-world 2.5D heterogenous optical system, which will combine an antenna array, LNA, and optical modulator/filter on a glass interposer targeting the creation of a RF/photonic system.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about solutions for your design challenges and network with other expert users during lunch and the Summit social hour.
