Next-generation data networks require PICs that combine speed, energy efficiency and scalable manufacturability. This presentation shows how advances in thin-film lithium niobate processes are moving TFLN PIC manufacturing toward greater reliability and reproducibility. We illustrate how design choices gain real impact only when supported by stable, scalable fabrication delivering low-power, high-density interconnects.
Dr. Hernán Furci, Co-founder and Head of Engineering at CCRAFT, leads product development and industrialization of cutting-edge TFLN technology within an independent, pure-play foundry. With a PhD in Physics from Paris-Saclay University, he has held positions at leading European research and engineering institutions, including CEA, CERN and EPFL. He brings over a decade of experience in nanotechnology and microfabrication, sensor technologies, and integrated photonics, from design and fabrication to system-level integration.
