Within a third-party funded research project TU Berlin will improve the reflow resistance of photonic wirebond through an innovative assembly technique and an adapted photonic wirebond design.

The tasks of the TU Berlin focusses on the reflow resistance of silicon-organic hybrid (SOH) photonic integrated circuits (PIC) with photonic wirebond (PWB) fabricated by two-photon polymerisation. The reliability of the reflow resistance and the thermal and optical stability of the PWBs will be extensively investigated. In addition, the reflow resistance will be improved through optimised AVT to ensure the performance of the PICs. The results of this work should contribute to increasing the efficiency and miniaturisation of optical data transmission.
