Integrated Photonics Initiative
the integrated Photonics initiative is a multiyear, lincoln laboratory–
funded collaboration between the laboratory and the mit Campus
to support the research of doctoral candidates working on integrated
photonic materials, devices, and subsystems. its objectives are to
identify Department of Defense mission areas that could benefit from
integrated photonic technologies, develop these technologies through
graduate research, and work to insert the technologies into advanced
communication and sensor systems. Current research topics include
the development of high-power slab-coupled optical amplifiers,
integrated ultrafast optical logic gates, and absorbance modulated
optical lithography.
