IPUTs presented at SPIE Photonics West 2025

Another successful presentation of our project!

Dr Peter Harmsma of TNO provided a talk titled Integrated photonic ultrasound transducers for medical imaging during SPIE Photonics West 2025 in San Francisco, USA.

The talk focused on presentation of the experimental results on ultrasound transducers based on Photonic Integrated Circuits.  Devices based on Mach Zehnder Interferometers and Ring Resonators were fabricated and tested in the thick-Silicon on Insulator platform (VTT, Finland) and Si3N4 platform (Ligentec, Switzerland). The obtained Noise Equivalent Pressure which is two orders of magnitude lower than conventional State-Of-The-Art transducers, clearly demonstrating the huge potential of this concept.
