Episode 96 – Dr. Tom Hausken, Senior Industry Advisor, Optica
About this episode
By some measures, the production of optics and photonics core components is $400 billion a year market now, and the technology’s downstream value far exceeds that figure — particularly when calculating in new developments like photonic integrated circuits (PICs). But will photonics ever challenge the value of electronics? Or is it more of an analog to electronics’ early days? Or is photonics simply one of the electronics industry’s more interesting corners?
Optica’s senior industry advisor, Dr. Tom Hausken, joins TECH B2B Marketing’s Dan McCarthy in this episode of Manufacturing Matters to discuss this and other big questions about photonic trends and technology.
