How is silicon photonics sensing technology
Unlike traditional chips that rely on electrical signals for data transmission, silicon photonics uses photons as the medium, transmitting data through optical waveguides embedded within the chip. The silicon is usually patterned with sub-micrometre precision, into microphotonic components. It leverages the exceptional properties of Si, such as its high refractive index and compatibility with existing. Silicon photonics (SiPh) is an advanced technology that merges silicon-based semiconductor manufacturing with photonic components for data transmission, processing, and sensing.
