  • Abstract
    Silicon Photonics will become a mature technology at industrial level in one or two years. An overview including the status of the art of this technology is reported, and the main technological issues still to be focused on are discussed. Finally, ST view of the manufacturability status and of volume applications is provided as well as our vision of a Silicon Photonic roadmap.
