Hannah Grant discusses her work which focuses on Silicon Photonics. Most recently she has developed and demonstrated a heuristic characterization of Si-Photonic switches. While Si-Photonics is impressive technology, a characterization method has been lacking. Hannah covers her recent work, the scope and uses of Si-Photonics, and the need for a characterization of optical switches.
