Abstract
A photonic circuit design system includes a photonic circuit design tool to facilitate user inputs to generate a photonic circuit netlist comprising a photonic design component of a photonic circuit design. The system includes a memory system to store the photonic circuit netlist and a component library comprising a plurality of predetermined photonic design components from which the photonic design component is selected. The component library further includes physical data associated with physical characteristics of the plurality of predetermined photonic design components. The system further includes a photonic circuit generator to access the photonic circuit netlist from the memory and the associated photonic design component from the component library based on the photonic circuit netlist and to implement hierarchical algorithm associated with a physical layout and an optical interconnection of the photonic design component in a photonic circuit package based on the physical characteristics to generate the photonic circuit design.
