TL;DR: An overview of the most recent developments and improvements to the low-loss TriPleX Si3N4 waveguide technology is presented in this article, which can be combined to design complex functional circuits, but more important are manufactured in a single monolithic flow to create a compact photonic integrated circuit.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present two types of analog photonic links (APLs) to achieve true time delay (TTD) beamforming, based on hybrid optical integration of TriPleX and InP chips.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the combination of both technologies, the interconnection issues faced in the assembly process and latest measurement results on these hybrid integrated devices, as well as the integration of the different platforms in modules via cost effective assembly techniques.

TL;DR: In this article, a microwave photonic broadband true time delay (TTD) continuously tuneable beamformer module for phased array antenna applications is presented, which is based on the hybrid integration of Indium Phosphide and Silicon Nitride chips.

TL;DR: The first results on a fully integrated optical beamforming module based on hybrid integration of TriPleX and InP are presented and the implementation of various beamforming architecture used in two European H2020 research projects are discussed.
