Photonic Circuit Field (ICFO)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We explore new methodologies and processes for the development of integrated photonic chips, focusing on the design, characterization and operation with innovative materials and functionalities. Our application lines include quantum cryptography, hybrid image sensors and integration with microelectronics in hybrid systems. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
