DESCRIPTION:Progress in the field of integrated photonics has been greatly 
 accelerated by leveraging the existing microelectronics fabrication infras
 tructure. However\, the fabrication of nanophotonic circuits carries a new
  set of challenges due to the high sensitivity of light–matter interacti
 ons. As the devices of integrated photonic circuits become smaller and mor
 e complex to satisfy increasing demands for performance\, random errors an
 d systematic inaccuracies in fabrication can cause significant reductions 
 in real-world performance. In this lecture\, we will discuss modern method
 s of fabricating photonic circuits\, the challenges in fabricating next-ge
 neration designs\, as well as current and near-future methods of overcomin
 g these challenges.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dusan Gostimirovic\, \n\nRoom: TR0070\,
