Workshop description

As AI infrastructure evolves, the demand for optical connectivity is accelerating at an unprecedented pace. With each new GPU/accelerator generation, optical interconnect bandwidth is expected to double, pushing the industry toward terabit-per-lane optics within the next five years. This rapid scaling presents immense challenges in bandwidth density, power efficiency, and cost. At the same time, photonics is expanding beyond high-bandwidth optical interconnects, driving innovations in novel photonic architectures for AI acceleration and network switching. 

This workshop will highlight both the significant challenges and the most promising advancements in photonics technology. 

Join industry leaders and researchers as we envision the next decade of photonic innovation and its transformative impact on AI, high-performance computing, and global connectivity.

Photonics Society of Chinese Heritage (PSC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promote friendships and collaborations among Chinese American engineers and scientists in the field of photonics so that they can enhance their professional and business contributions for better quality of life in this fast changing world.
