Preguntas frecuentes
How long does this course run?
Photonic Integrated Circuits 1 runs over an eight week period. The course timeline begins with three weeks of instruction; a two week hiatus follows, during which verified learners have continued online access to the AIM Design Center cloud platform, and can practice with the integrated circuit design software; the course concludes its final three weeks with an increasing weekly focus on the final design project.
Can I get an academic discount for this course?
An academic discount is not available for this course. The registration cost for Photonic Integrated Circuits 1 includes two hundred hours of access time to the AIM Design Center cloud platform, so that verified learners can work with online industry-standard software to complete their integrated circuit design project. There is no discount option for the two hundred hours of access time to this cloud platform.
Is there a textbook for this course?
There is no textbook assigned for this course. However, the textbook Silicon PhotonicsDesign: From Devices toSystems (by Lukas Chrostowski and Michael Hochberg) is a helpful reference for supplementing and fortifying your understanding of many key concepts introduced here.
How do I access the EPDA software and Education PDK electronic library?
The EPDA software and Education PDK are securely stored on an online cloud service, outside of the MITx course site. Only verified students, who have registered for a course certificate, will be allowed to access this external website via a secure login. Students will not be allowed to upload anything to this cloud service, nor will they be allowed to download anything from it. To complete secure login access, verified students must agree each time they log in to End-User License terms and conditions for responsible conduct to work with the EPDA software and the Education PDK.
If I only want to audit the course, can I still access the EPDA software and Education PDK electronic library?
Auditors are not allowed to access the external online cloud service, they will not be able to work with the EPDA software design tools or the Education PDK library.
As a verified student, will my final design tape-out file really be ready—in principle—to submit to an AIM Photonics fabrication run?
Yes, successful completion of this course requires verified students to submit a final design tape-out electronic file that could—in principle—be submitted to an AIM Photonics Institute fabrication run, the very next day. The certificate you earn for this course is awarded for successful completion of a design project, comprised of a tape-out electronic file and a written report.
Is there any opportunity for me to participate with my final design tape-out in an AIM Photonics fabrication run?
For verified students who have successfully completed this course, the best tape-out designs submitted on the online cloud service will be selected for submission to an AIM Photonics Multi-Project Wafer (MPW) fabrication run. Please inquire of the course lecturers and course manager if you’ll like to learn more.
When will I receive my certificate?
Upon completion of the course, submitted design projects will be scrupulously reviewed and graded over a several-week period, after which you’ll be awarded your certificate.
¿Quién puede hacer este curso?
Lamentablemente, las personas de uno o más de los siguientes países o regiones no podrán registrarse para este curso: Irán, Cuba y la región de Crimea en Ucrania. Si bien edX consiguió licencias de la Oficina de Control de Activos Extranjeros de los EE. UU. (U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control, OFAC) para ofrecer nuestros cursos a personas en estos países y regiones, las licencias que hemos recibido no son lo suficientemente amplias como para permitirnos dictar este curso en todas las ubicaciones. edX lamenta profundamente que las sanciones estadounidenses impidan que ofrezcamos todos nuestros cursos a cualquier persona, sin importar dónde viva.
