Stewart E. Miller published "Integrated optics: an introduction"
which outlined a proposal for a miniature form of laser beam circuitry
marking the first research paper about what is now known as integrated photonics. Now half a century has passed
integrated photonics grew robustly from integrating a limited number of devices and functions towards versatile and industrialized photonic integrated circuits. In this interview
Light: Science & Applications
invited Prof. Xianfeng Chen [see the "Short Bio" section] to share his insight about the past
