Next-generation silicon photonics platforms enabled by micro-transfer printing – The TRANSVERSE Pilot Line

Micro-transfer printing (MTP) enables the integration of diverse materials and devices, such as III-V and LiNbO3 components, onto a single platform. With high alignment accuracy and efficient use of source material, MTP facilitates cutting-edge photonic integrated circuits (PICs), all while maintaining compatibility with existing manufacturing workflows. We will elaborate on the status of the TRANSVERSE pilot line that develops this technology on 200mm wafer silicon photonics wafers.
