The Zelenograd Nanotechnology Center, a member of Rusnano, has presented the latest photonic integrated circuit designed for use in the aerospace and oil and gas industries.
A spectral splitter was demonstrated, which significantly increases the efficiency of data processing, improving both the performance and security of communication channels.
The main difference between the new circuit and traditional solutions is a significant reduction in energy consumption, weight, and dimensions of analytical equipment. The spectral multiplexing technology, on which the circuit is based, is actively being implemented in control and telemetry systems of aircraft and is an important direction in sensor technologies.
The transition to compact form factors allows devices to be made portable, which opens up new possibilities for their use not only in stationary conditions, but also in motion. This, in turn, significantly expands the scope of the technology, including not only the aerospace industry, but also the oil and gas sector, where it is necessary to constantly monitor and diagnose equipment.
Photonic integrated circuits developed by the Zelenograd Nanotechnology Center formed the basis of a pipeline support monitoring system, which won the "Pitch Battle" of the "Energotechnohub Petersburg". The project aims to increase the reliability of pipelines in difficult climatic conditions, for example, on permafrost soils, which will help prevent man-made disasters.
The "Zelenograd Nanotechnology Center" provides a full cycle of development and production of microcircuits and physical quantity sensors for industry and provides a range of technological services for design centers and manufacturers of radio-electronic equipment.
