Lightwave Logic, a technology company recently declared that the University of Arizona will continue to carry out further tests to verify and confirm the former results presented at Photon-X and the University of Colorado.

The outcome results demonstrated the measurement of an electro-optical effect to be greater than 250 pm/V at 1550-nm based on a conventional Teng-Man testing protocol.

From the initial measurements, the University of Arizona, College of Optical Science researchers have discovered certain significant effects, which motivated them for additional research. Further researches will enable scientists to resolve the way in which Perkinamine Indigo’s response was originated. Analysis of two additional material coefficients that include the piezoelectric coefficient d33 and the electro-optic coefficient r13 facilitated the determination of the overall contribution derived from electro-optic coefficient r33. New material samples, when lined-up in a different geometry will ensure a more precise Mach-Zehnder interferometry test method using the University's technical requirements.

According to, Lightwave Logic's Chief Executive Officer, Jim Marcelli the observation of material by Dr. Norwood contributes to a more detailed analysis of all the electro-optic coefficient measurements that were formerly carried out. Based on the standard Teng-Man method, further validation on Perkinamine Indigo at Photon-X and CU Boulder, ensures encouraging results. The internal development effort on balancing its Perkinamine family of chromophores has shown further progress. This continued validation testing has involved and improved communication between its major microelectronics company and large system supplier.
