Programmable photonic circuits, in contrast to classical integrated circuits (PIC), can be configured at run-time route light along different paths and perform optical functions. This is accomplished by a mesh of interconnected waveguides that are coupled using electrically actuated tunable couplers phase shifters. Such waveguide redefine the connectivity between functional building blocks, but also into interferometric resonant wavelength filters. The generic nature such programmable PICs...
