The growing market for silicon photonic integrated circuits has led to the need for reliable, automated physical and manufacturing verification process flows that address the unique physical characteristics of silicon pho-tonics designs. By expanding and adapting the use of established physical verification and optimization functionality, EDA companies have enabled their tools to accommodate the new components and design concepts of silicon photonics designs, and provided photonics designers with an automated and standardized path to tapeout.
