Software Framework Architecture for Programmable Photonic Chips
Iman Zand, Cleitus Antony, Xiangfeng Chen, Wim Bogaerts · 2022
We introduce a software framework for design and programming of large scale programmable photonic chips. The framework facilitates design, simulation, configuration and measurements of reconfigurable waveguide meshes, managing hundreds of actuators and translate high-level user requirements into driving strategies of the electronic channels.
