Center for Integrated Photonics Eindhoven

The Center for Integrated Photonics Eindhoven carries out research in materials, devices, circuits and systems enabling novel applications in communication, computing and sensing. The Center is funded by a 10-years NWO-Gravitation grant.

Mission and ambition

The Center for Integrated Photonics Eindhoven (IPI) is a leading R&D center in the field of integrated photonics. The work of the center ranges from fundamental scientific research in materials to the development of novel photonic devices, circuits and systems. This research directly addresses societal challenges such as the exponential growth and increasing energy footprint of the internet and the need for personalized medical care.

The Center for Integrated Photonics Eindhoven continues the tradition of the 果冻传媒 research school COBRA and of the former Institute for Photonic Integration, and it is part of the Eindhoven Hendrik Casimir Institute, which has a broader focus on information technology. The center regroups over 100 researchers active in the field of photonics, and has access to a large cleanroom (800 m2) optimized for photonics R&D.
