Silicon Photonics Design From Devices to Systems by Lukas Chrostowski, Michael Hochberg

From design and simulation through to testing and fabrication, 
this hands-on introduction to silicon photonics engineering equips
 students with everything they need to begin creating foundry-ready designs. 
In-depth discussion of real-world issues and fabrication challenges ensures 
that students are fully equipped for careers in industry. Step-by-step tutorials, 
straightforward examples, and illustrative source code fragments guide students 
through every aspect of the design process, providing a practical framework for 
developing and refining key skills. Offering industry-ready expertise, the text 
supports existing PDKs for CMOS UV-lithography foundry services (OpSIS, ePIXfab, imec, LETI, IME and CMC)
 and the development of new kits for proprietary processes and clean-room based research. 
Accompanied by additional online resources to support students, this is the perfect 
learning package for senior undergraduate and graduate students studying silicon
 photonics design, and academic and industrial researchers involved in the development and manufacture of new silicon photonics systems.
