Abstract :
Our Photonics and Optoelectronics Device Fabrication Facility and The Center for Electromagnetic Materials and Optical Systems are resources available to industry for the development of novel materials and the designing and prototyping devices and systems. We discuss novel techniques and technologies for use in developing and characterizing electronic and photonic materials; in designing photonic and optoelectronic devices for optical interconnects, filters, and specialized mirrors/beam splitters; in developing systems architectures for neural and digital optical computation; and testing prototype systems. This discussion includes the use of photolithographic techniques to fabricate parts, thin film technologies coupled with stenciled mask technologies for packaging applications, silicon carbide technology in motor controls, and other novel applications
