Photonics has become the major technology underpinning the communication and storage of data. As photonics advances applications are emerging which demand components be manufactured cheaply in the manner achieved by the electronics industry in the silicon chip. Silicon is now emerging as an important photonic material and devices can benefit from inexpensive processing methods developed for electronics. This project aims to capture key intellectual property for monolithically integrating key photonic components onto a silicon platform. The project can bring social and commercial benefits to Australia such as high-level research and training in nanotechnology as well as opportunities for commercialisation in niche markets.

光子学已经成为支撑数据通信和存储的主要技术。随着光子学的进步，需要以电子工业在硅芯片上实现的方式以低成本制造组件的应用不断涌现。硅现在正在成为一种重要的光子材料，设备可以从为电子开发的廉价加工方法中受益。该项目旨在获取将关键光子组件集成到硅平台上的关键知识产权。该项目可以为澳大利亚带来社会和商业利益，例如纳米技术方面的高水平研究和培训，以及在利基市场进行商业化的机会。
