Wave Photonics Achieves Synopsys OptoCompiler Compatibility to Automate Open-Source Quantum Photonic Chips

Integrated photonics design innovator Wave Photonics has announced that all Process Design Kits (PDKs) hosted, developed, or managed through its PDK Management Platform are officially compatible with Synopsys OptoCompiler. Operating as a unified electronic and photonic design automation platform, Synopsys OptoCompiler fuses dedicated photonic simulation with schematic-driven layouts and circuit verification. This direct software compatibility enables hardware engineers to synthesize, simulate, and verify complex Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) across multiple material stacks and wide-spectrum wavelengths from blue light to standard telecommunications bands.
