Framework for photonic circuits

A framework for photonic circuits is a structured set of design principles and components that guide the development of circuits using light instead of electricity. These circuits use photons to transmit, process, and manipulate information at very high speeds and with low energy loss. The framework includes elements like waveguides (channels for light), switches, and detectors, all integrated to perform complex tasks such as data communication and computing. It ensures that these optical components work together efficiently and reliably, enabling advanced technologies like faster internet, secure communication, and quantum computing.
