This book introduces readers to the physical design (layout) and design automation of Photonic Integrated Ciruicts (PICs) which is an essential building block of Electronic-Photonic Design Automation (EPDA). Proper PIC design automation and implementation of complex curvilinear shapes play a critical role in reliability, quality, and time-to-market of complex PIC products. The author starts by introducing some basic mathematical concepts used in implementation of photonic components, followed by a deep dive into implementation details of parameterized PIC components. The book introduces the industry-standard schematic driven layout flow and tries to simplify the concepts and implementations. The author conveys difficult concepts and advanced EPDA scripting/programming methodologies, using a simple language and coding examples. I have included Chap. 6 to introduce proper scalable software development methodology using SKILL++. Virtuoso is the tool used for the implementation of my designs and the Virtuoso CurvyCore mathematical engine is used to implement photonic devices’ physical design (layout). SKILL is the main scripting language used for code implementation. All the examples provided in the book are based on Generic Optical Process Design Kit (GoPDK), which is a generic optical PDK developed by Cadence Design Systems, Inc. to demonstrate their photonic solution capabilities.
