Webinar 10 Information

Note: Webinar is fully booked

Curious about the potential of aligned, high-resolution 3D printing for photonics manufacturing and packaging? Join us for our latest webinar to learn how Two-Photon Polymerization enables the high-resolution printing of precise microoptics, including spherical, aspherical, free-form, diffractive, and hybrid designs, onto optical fibers and photonic chips with nanometer accuracy - no additional assembly or alignment required.
Our experts will discuss applications for imaging, sensing, and beam shaping with low optical coupling loss. The webinar will include a live demonstration of Quantum X align, demonstrating alignment accuracy down to 100 nm. This session is ideal for researchers, engineers, and photonics and microfabrication professionals seeking insights into advanced photonic packaging.

Dr. Andreu Llobera Adan, Head of Research Unit Photonic Systems at Silicon Austria Labs (SAL), will share insights into applied research on photonic systems. With a focus on optical sensor systems and M(O)EMS-based functional microcomponents, he will discuss the potential novel photonic systems and applications enabled by aligned high-resolution 3D printing.

Dr. Tian Gu, Principal Investigator at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), will discuss the wide range of applications for photonic integrated circuits, the demand of optical interfaces, the challenges in photonics packaging, with a focus on the demanding alignment accuracies. He will provide an overview of coupling concepts and present a novel 3D printed ultra-efficient broadband 3D coupler interface.

Mareike Trappen, Application Manager Photonic Integration at Nanoscribe, will introduce the capabilities of Two-Photon Polymerization (2PP)-based microfabrication with a special focus on the technology and features of Aligned 2-Photon Lithography (A2PL®). For coupling photonic chips, she will demonstrate fully passive alignment through aligned 3D printing with Quantum X align in a live demo.
