About the workshop

From a Single Device to a Manufacturable Chip

In May we showed one autonomous loop designing one component. That work is now published (arXiv:2606.00915) with an open framework. Since then we have taken agents through the rest of the flow: system-level simulation, placement, routing, and verification, ending in a manufacturable layout.

This workshop covers both halves. Session 01 is the device, Session 02 is the chip, and in Session 03 you run it yourself. We also cover where human intervention is needed, so you understand the limits of agentic chip design.

Workshop Agenda

Session 01

Autonomous Design of a Photonic Device

Tackling problems across active and passive component design with Tidy3D. We run the loop on splitters, grating couplers, PN-junction phase shifters, and RF electrodes, and show what the agent needs to be given before it can do any of it.

Session 02

Agents Across the Full Chip Flow

System-level simulation, placement and routing, and verification, ending in a manufacturable layout. One written specification becomes a numeric target for every component, then a routed, DRC-clean chip.

Break

Lunch

Lunch is provided. A good moment to get your laptop set up before the hands-on lab.

Session 03

Hands-On Lab: Agents and Multi-Agent Teams

You run the workflow. Point a single agent at one component, or give an orchestrator a specification and let it dispatch its own team, with Flexcompute engineers in the room. Bring your laptop.
