A novel process design kit (PDK) offering providing seamless access to the Albany NanoTech Complex’s 300mm foundry with a mission to promote silicon photonics technology is demonstrated. Unlike traditional pure-play foundries, we have developed a framework that allows our PDKs to contain libraries developed by internal and external domain experts. In addition to integrated Electronic Photonic Design Automation (EPDA) platforms, our PDK is also released in an alternate PIC design flow that the lowers the cost barrier for organizations. Further, our PDKs target a broad application space that includes telecom as well emerging areas such as sensors and quantum photonics – all with the ability for onboard light sources. A PDK from American Institute of Manufacturing (AIM Photonics) will be discussed that demonstrates these features.
