Thank you for this good piece

Intel's teams are working hard. It's nice to see Intel's progress and accomplishments, including the design of the InP laser and how it will be integrated with all other components into the PIC.

Great stuff, not quiet ready, but I would say Intel is about No 4 as of today’s state of the art in Photonic integration.
 
This says it all: 
James Jaussi, senior principal engineer and director of Intel’s PHY research lab:

« For now, integrated photonics is still the stuff of lab experiments. But a number of breakthroughs introduced during Intel’s recent Labs Day (Dec 2020) show that the technology is capable of lower power, higher performance, and greater reach than today’s server interconnects. »
