Today we observe the convergence of the communication systems and the increase and the sophistication of the offered content. This evolution leads to accelerated growth of the demand of the generation, the treatment and the transmission of data streams. The semiconductor compounds have made possible this evolution and among them, the silicon for the electronic and the 3-5 compounds for the photonic applications. To be in phase with this growing demand, the convergence between electronic and photonic is a requirement. The silicon is the substrate which will help this convergence to occur. This workshop is organised to invite in the same place the international and national researchers in the field of silicon and photonics. The workshop opens by the oral presentations of futur needs in the communications, the optical interconnections inside high performance computers and the fundamental physics. These opening presentations are followed by new results given by the researchers involved in the domain of silicon photonics. The different sessions will address the integrated circuits, the device realisations, the structure and nanostructure growth and the mastering of the semiconductor surfaces as well as the theoretical simulations and experimental caracterisations.
