The polymer you reference (HLD) appears to be under NLM Photonics domain and/or control. NLM Photonics is a private company.

The importance of the 145 GHz frequency capacity in the context of the paper can be explained in several ways:
1. High Frequency Capacity
Technological Advantage: A photodiode with a capacity of up to 145 GHz indicates the ability to perform very fast opto-electrical conversions. This is crucial for applications requiring high data rates, such as in modern communication networks and advanced quantum computers.
Broadband Performance: The use of components that can handle high frequencies supports the broader frequency response and bandwidth of the plasmonic modulators discussed in the paper. This contributes to more efficient and faster data transmission.
2. Opto-Electrical Conversion
Signal Processing Efficiency: The 145 GHz photodiode is a key component in the optical system, where the optical signal is converted into an electrical signal. The high frequency capacity ensures that this conversion can occur quickly and accurately without significant loss or delay.
Signal Integrity: The ability to handle high frequencies means that the integrity of the signal is maintained even at very high data rates. This is essential for applications where precision and speed are crucial, such as in quantum computers and advanced data communications.
3. Support for Advanced Modulation Techniques
More Complex Modulation Techniques: High frequency capacity makes it possible to use more complex modulation techniques, such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM), which increases the efficiency and capacity of data transmission.
Future-Proofing: By using components that can handle high frequencies, the system is made future-proof, ready for future technologies that require higher data rates and bandwidths.
4. Relevance for Cryogenic Applications
Low-Temperature Operation: The capabilities of the photodiode at cryogenic temperatures demonstrate that such technologies can operate reliably under extreme conditions, which is essential for applications in quantum computing where low temperatures are common.
Conclusion
The use of a 145 GHz photodiode in the experiments described in the paper highlights the technological sophistication and potential of plasmonic modulators for high-speed and high-bandwidth applications. This capacity not only supports current performance but also makes the system suitable for future expansions and improvements in data communication and quantum technologies.

In the detailed text of the paper, several important points confirm that HLD is an organic electro-optic (OEO) material:
Organic Electro-Optic Material:
"Recently, cryogenic modulators exploiting the linear electro-optic coefficient in organic electro-optic (OEO) materials have been introduced."
"Electro-optic modulation is achieved by using the linear electro-optic effect (r33) of an OEO material inside the slot. More specifically, the material HLD was used, with an in-device r33 of 159 pm/V measured at room temperature."
Use of HLD:
The material HLD has been used in a horizontal plasmonic metal-insulator-metal (MIM) slot configuration for electro-optic modulation.
HLD has a significant electro-optic effect and has been found suitable for use in cryogenic conditions, with performances demonstrated at temperatures down to 4 K.
Conclusion:
Is HLD organic? Yes, HLD is indeed described as an organic electro-optic material.
Link with Lightwave Logic (LWLG): Although the paper does not explicitly state that HLD is from Lightwave Logic, it is logical to assume a connection, given Polariton's collaboration with LWLG and the use of advanced organic electro-optic materials developed by LWLG.
Lebby gave a Keynote at OFC 2024 about "Heterogeneous Integration", here AMAT speaks about heterogeneous integration as well as saying that "materials science and materials engineering are increasingly important to the industry's road map", AMAT has been discussed here many times as a Tier 1 very likely having an NDA partnership with LWLG currently, here
A few little tidbits from the AMAT earnings call. Recall that at multiple industry events, Robert Blum has been seen pulling Lebby aside for private conversations.
“Key inflections that underpin the semiconductor road map are enabled by Applied Materials and will support our ongoing outperformance as next-generation chip technologies move into high-volume production. In addition, the complexity of implementing the industry's road map and bringing new semiconductor technologies to market is driving earlier, deeper, and broader collaboration with customers, as well as supporting double-digit growth for our service business.”
“Looking further ahead, we see opportunities for this business to double again as heterogeneous integration is more widely adopted beyond the AI data center, and we introduce new products that expand our served market.”
“Materials science and materials engineering are increasingly important to the industry's road map. Applied has invested early to develop a broad, unique, and connected portfolio of materials engineering solutions that are critical to enable major semiconductor inflections, from AI high-performance computing to ICAPS edge computing.”

Ok folks, AMAT has been spoken about many times on this board as being a likely potential partner/buyer of LWLG's technology, KCC added this interesting comment for color from what he had personally witnessed in October 2023 at the PECC conference,
Very good. There’s been long running speculation that AMAT is involved somehow. Personally I think AMAT is a company who would possibly acquire LWLG.
At Optica PECC last fall, Robert Blum (former head of Silicon Photonics at Intel, now at AMAT) pulled Lebby from a table and they spent a fair amount of time talking about something that must have been private.

Infinera: Optics is Everywhere in the AI Era
Interview from OFC 2024, Heavy Reading analyst Sterling Perrin and Infinera CEO David Heard discuss how the AI traffic boom will drive optics in data center interconnect, subsea and terrestrial telecom networks, and also open new opportunities for Infinera’s chips inside the data center itself.
Pumpkin, exactly who is your post about $15.00 and a Roth directed to? Specifically, who are you speaking of? Can you simply name them?
Also, exactly who is it that you are stating gets advice from this veiled described aforementioned ROTH person?
Who is it that you have warned since the $15.00 price?
Name ALL the parties you reference.
What is meant or implied by your repeated Vaporware statements?
Also exactly what entity is the scam that you incessantly put in your posts?
Why would you spend time here posting the above?
PurpleCritter2001
I edit at times due to a physical issue with numbness in my hand. I apologize for the issue, it is unavoidable.
You know what’s even worse. It’s in a ROTH. This clown could have sold and paid no taxes and bought back if they ever became a viable solution for the industry. Remember this is the person you are taking advice from, a complete loser. SMH. I’ve warned you all the way down from at least $15. You can’t make this up!
It’s a shame these penny longs have and will lose ALL of their money.
#scam
Going to be hilarious seeing X as the mayor of penny town again after all these years. Unreal he let those paper gains go. Terrible terrible terrible.
#scam
Sorry but no one needs Vaporwave. Cold hard fact.
#scam
Don’t think, know. It’s happening and it’s real.
#scam
No disrespect Vein, but it is in the realm of possibility that Lightmatter could now or in the future, possibly want or need Lightwave's technology.
LightWave is generally an ENABLING technology to Photonics. The more one understands about the underlying technology and how it may fit in the overall ecosystem then the more cognizant and relaxed one can be.
Always do your own diligence and research.
Best to you,
Purplecritter2001
Please excuse that I sometimes edit as I have a numb hand on occasion.
I think they may be leapfrogging lightwaves technology, that’s my worry
Yes, Nick Harris is obviously a brilliant man. Nick has been working on Lightmatter technology for years or at least since about 2015 to 2017. He is well respected by his peers. He is out of MIT. Nick Harris appears to be a very strategic thinker and does not put out too much information on his exact technology, specifications, plans or exact timing. I believe he must practice thought leadership skills. He presently has the luxury that Lightmatter is still private so he can concentrate on developing a great and sorely needed technology without having to listen to public shareholders possibly demeaning him and his work through a lack of general understanding of strategical planning and thought leadership principals.
Nick Harris is still young and I suspect the tech world will one day instantly recognize his name. I have been following him and his work (as well as others in the field) for a long time.
If you really like Lightmatter, there are some great you tube videos and article on the web.
Best to you,
PurpleCritter2001
Light matter is building a real company . Just hired a Nvidia exec
Please disregard my request for help. I was incorrect in my understanding of what exactly I was looking for. The actual information I was looking for I found.
I appreciate anyone who sincerely and respectfully attempted to help, if in fact that was the case.
The Market is closing early tomorrow and will be closed on Thursday due to the 4th of July Holiday.
I love the 4th of July! We are blessed to have and enjoy our freedom. I have been intermittently hearing fireworks at nightfall
since last Friday night, and I can hear some as I write this post. It warms my soul.
Again, have a great holiday everyone!

Congrats with ur purchase. You should adress that to Ruud coz i dont really care if you buy or sell.
But Ruud will give you a pad on the back and the hand sign 🤙
I think he will be reaffirming that he will not meet the goals this year once again. He has to be consistant in his track record
Your post is nonsense
Your post is nonsense...
The product offered by Poet is not equal to the product offered by Lightwave Logic. In a rational world LWLG is the supplier and POET is the customer.
I think he looked like a fool missing the December deals and still counting. He thought with all the data, test results and negotiating he was close enough to signing deals that he put out a press release to inform us. Didn't happen and his excuse was they want more DATA. If they were that close in December with the DATA at that time, are you telling me that 8 more months of DATA and test results, he still can't get them to the table. Just doesn't add up or make sense. If nothing happens in 2024 he will have the same or another excuse, but that reaffirming press release will make him look like a bigger fool.
He said he was on track to meet all goals by the 2023 ASM and only delivered on one. So at this point nothing will surprise me. The odds are greater that he won't deliver by his past history.
LWLG's TOP Competition is TFLN which is LAUGHABLE!!!
TFLN? here worth another LQQk,
TFLN isn’t ready. Unless HyperLight drastically expanded their production line and figured out their stability issues, they aren’t able to supply the market.
Liobate. No. Luxtelligence and it’s customers. No. Lightium is the new guy. No, years away. Rapid Photonics. Who? Ori-Chip. Maybe if anyone. NanoLN…monopoly on TFLN wafers hence why Luxtelligence and Lightium exist. Eoptolink uses HyperLight’s PICs because their own Chinese suppliers can’t supply…and Eopolink isn’t selling. And why is that…go to the paragraph above.
“The volume will act as a barrier.” LOL for TFLN you mean Markie?

HyperLight is TFLN's #1 leading company in world!!! Check out HyperLight's latest Development of "gold-box" TFLN modulators which they are proudly showcasing at CLEO next week!!! Too funny!!!
https://cleo24.mapyourshow.com/8_0/exhibitor/exhibitor-details.cfm?exhid=209&shareguid=0C02EFD5-B1E7-126B-A742469AED53E0F4
Hyperlight is showcasing its TFLN GOLD BOX modulator as their PRIZE DEVELOPMENT!!! TOO FUNNY!!!!
Hyperlight is supposedly the #1 TFLN company in the world!!!!!
This is where LWLG was about 5 years ago!!!!
here's a sample meeting of a Google/Amazon/Nvidia etc CEO with their Chief Engineer of Photonics
CEO, so what do you think we should use for our true next-gen internet transmissions solution?
ENG, well we've been working hard to help you decide the BEST solution and here's what we've got, Mark L says TFLN is going to be the winner of all the materials out there
CEO, ok, so then TFLN must have all those things we spoke about right? Is TFLN incredibly small so as to free up space in the Transceiver box so we don't have to implement Co-Packaged Optics any time within the next several generations?
ENG, well no, actually LWLG Polymers fit 120 devices in the same space TFLN fits only 8, but Mark L says TFLN is going to be the winner of all the materials out there
CEO, ok, well then TFLN must be using the least power right?
ENG, well no, actually LWLG Polymers is the ONLY solution operating at sub-1Volt that ELIMINATE the power hungry and expensive Driver Chip, but Mark L says TFLN is going to be the winner of all the materials out there
CEO, ok, well then TFLN must have the lowest Optical Losses and will save us money on requiring less DSP usage right?
ENG, well no, actually LWLG Polymers has MUCH LOWER Optical Losses, but Mark L says TFLN is going to be the winner of all the materials out there
CEO, ok well TFLN must be SUPER COMPATIBLE with Standard Silicon Foundries right?
ENG, well no, actually LWLG Polymers are SUPER COMPATIBLE with Standard Silicon Foundries and we are not sure whether TFLN can be "shoehorned in" to a Silicon Foundry PDK yet but there are quite a few companies trying to do that right now, but Mark L says TFLN is going to be the winner of all the materials out there
CEO, ok, well I've heard that TFLN does not yet have a 200Gbs device capable of being mass produced at a large SiPh Foundry on 200mm Wafers?
ENG, sorry sir, NO they don't yet, but they are working really hard on that right now!! And Hyperlight the #1 TFLN Development company said in about 3 MORE YEARS they could possibly get this done!!!
CEO, what about LWLG Polymers, can they mass produce a 200Gbs device on 200mm Wafers at a large Foundry?
ENG, well YES sir, they just got done demonstrating perfect Open Eyes of that very device at OFC to MANY Tier1's along with Research Analysts, etc, it was VERY IMPRESSIVE indeed, I was there!!! BUT may I remind you, Mark L says TFLN is going to be the winner of all the materials out there
CEO, well I actually know Michael Lebby and I know of all his credentials in leadership of the Photonics Industry, but I really hadn't considered what you are telling me about Mark L telling everyone that TFLN is the way to go, interesting, well I've come to my decision
ENG, well did I convince you? Are you going with TFLN as Mark L says is going to be the winner?
CEO, no actually I'm going with Lebby/LWLG and YOU'RE FIRED!!!
Oh and one more thing, LWLG's technology has HEADROOM for at least a decade of future generations!!
TFLN does NOT!!!
Here from the 2023 ASM Lebby quoted a Foundry as saying the following "At our Foundry we are worried about an investment into TFLN, it may only be for one generation, but with (LWLG) Polymers our investment would be worthwhile and a better ROI"
LWLG beats ALL Next-Gen Competitors hands down!!! Let's compare,
Understanding Figure of Merit (FOM) the BEST place to be on the chart shown on Slide 47 is the TOP and RIGHT of the chart, and notice this is EXACTLY where LWLG is shown as compared to the competing Next-Gen challengers!!!
https://api.mziq.com/mzfilemanager/v2/d/23d26d3e-c498-431f-ba5c-2250e5f374cb/9bec8dfc-0108-5227-4f5b-d31f67ae623a?origin=2
LWLG tops ALL competition in FOM scores by far!!!!
Let's discuss the Competition >> from the ASM video starting at about 21:06 investors learn that amazingly there is no REAL competition to LWLG's technology for transmitting data!!! The first slide on competition shown is #25 and it has columns for each of the competitive products and then down the page a list of attributes along with the comparable Ratings for each of them, LWLG's Polymers are by far and away TONS THE BEST versus ALL the competitors!!
Let's review each of the attributes and see why LWLG's technology is SO SUPERIOR to any/all of them
1) SPEED >> LWLG is TONS THE BEST with speeds over 100GHz with HEADROOM to go MUCH FASTER!!!!! The rest of the competitors MAX OUT in the 30GHz - 70GHz range!!!
2) SIZE >> LWLG's slot modulator is the smallest, InP comes closest, but LNb, TFLN, and BTO are all MUCH BIGGER, in fact in another slide Lebby compares LWLG's slot modulator array to TFLN and in the space where 8 TFLN modulators sit, there could be 15 times as many LWLG slot modulators (120 modualtors!!)
3) POWER (Voltage) >> Only LWLG's technology is at sub 1 volt, SiP up to 5 volts, InP up to 7 volts, LNb up to 40 volts, TFLN up to 5 volts, BTO up to 3 volts
4) OPTICAL LOSS >> again LWLG slot is BEST with 3-8Db, SiP up to 20Db, InP up to 10Db, LNb up to 12Db, TFLN up to 15Db, BTO up to 12Db
5) ENERGY CONSUMPTION >> LWLG is BEST again with just 5pj/bit!!! SiP up to 20pj/bit, InP up to 40pj/bit, LNb up to 100pj/bit, TFLN up to 20pj/bit, BTO up to 20pj/bit
6) STABILITY >> again LWLG is the BEST, while SiP and InP are also very Stabile, the newcomers BTO and TFLN are NOT stabile enough for commercial acceptance!!
7) FOUNDRY COMPATABILITY >> Only LWLG and SiP use "Standard SiP PDK Fabrication", InP, LNb, TFLN and BTO are NOT able to use "Standard SiP PDK Fabrication" they all require their own Foundries
8) REQUIRES DRIVER (Expensive & Power Hungry!!!!) >> Only LWLG at sub 1 volt can ELIMINATE THE DRIVER!!!!! This is HUGE HUGE HUGE!!!!
Lebby also illustrates all of this at 25:18 marker with Slide #29 where the BEST technology would be found as HIGH UP and as FAR TO THE RIGHT as can be, notice ONLY one technology is placed there and it is of course LWLG in the light green shaded rectangle!!!
First off no one would with a brain be interested in participating in a PP related to this scam house of cards at levels above a couple of bucks. Second if they did manage to do a PP the likelihood of being sued by sophisticated investors goes way up once the proverbial cat is out of the bag on misleading investors. Third LPC is not going to sue the hand which feeds it. All calculated by the criminal mind behind the polymer curtain.
#scam
The Vulcan will look like a fool if they do not deliver some large news in 2024. I would rather see Marcelli jettisoned to Siberia than a deal. Get rid of the LPC crap and find a new COO than can find a better source of capital. All they needed was a placement when the stock was running in 2021-2022 to secure funding for years. For some reason nitwit decides he likes the way things are. What a cesspool.
Greed is his motivation

I’m beginning to think you’re not real. You refuse to engage in any back and forth conversation. You’re not interested in knowing more about your investment. Your focus is entirely on the stock price and your demeaning comment about the CEO is beneath any standard of behavior. Would you say that in person to his face?
X uses ihub for his dear diary moments
Still waiting on the 2024 ramp up to start. That was plastered on this board all last year.
Don't see it posted as much. Think it has changed as usual to customer acceptance in 2024 and ramp up in 2025.
Lebby does like the word play.
Commercially accepted by one company in the past 13 months but that's because Lebby is being very selective on who he wants to work with. 🤣😂
You can't make this stuff up 🤣🤣
The only time frame these guys keep is raises and bonuses. Not to selective on those.
Sell and move on with your complaining each and every day, if you sell you do not have to whine about it anymore
Oh no, it's now 2H24 and I'm still waiting for that deal that all the regulars on here "guaranteed will happen by 2H22" after the 2022 ASM 🤣🤣🤣
I really hope you sell your shares right before the deal comes through, that you miss the train, so you can cry like a baby again because you sold. What a whiner you are, Vein. If you're going to cry like this, sell and spare this forum your whining!
Also, I’m not sure that they were entirely lying. I think they were so convinced, and had listened to the echo chamber of positive feedback to the point where critical analysis got lost.
Every forward-looking statement became a statement of fact.
It became a passion and highly emotionally charged. It has taken this crisis” to bring a measure of sobriety to that group. It did become an echo chamber of irrational expectation.
An accurate observation and analysis reanimator. And, a sad truth.
$LWLG just pathetic Lebby's buddies stepping up the selling - watch for the huge drop and reverse split LOL - Garbage
No sales big losses zero fundamentals
Who’s the sucker trying to catch this falling knife
Lebby and his buddies continues to pound on $LWLG liquidating free shares - this can do down in a hurry! The only one getting screwed here are the Longs GL!
All facts from the latest Q report you can find on Otcmarkets.com - I can make this disaster up LOL

Red, anyone who is being honest with themselves knows the answer to that question.
The company hasn't announced anything because they have nothing to announce.
Think back to all the "friendly" longs on this board who for years have claimed "Biggest deal ever is coming soon! LWLG is just being secretive about it so that they don't spoil any competitive advantages! That's why they're being silent!!"
Those people are not your friends. They know as well as anyone that they're peddling pie in the sky fantasies when they suggest - year after year after year after year after year - that the reason LWLG is silent is because they have a big deal cooking.
Again: the silence is because nothing is happening. For whatever reason, LWLG is unable to commercialize, and Lebby is unwilling to tell shareholders what specific hurdles are getting in the way. But the results - or lack thereof - speak for themselves.
I'm fed up with those short sellers and their lies.
"In December, this board is history and Lebby is a hero."
Lebby sucks !
Question is: is the silence because nothing is happening, or a lot of momentous stuff is being negotiated?
Spot on. I was in IR, albeit for a public utility company that was not exactly the most innovative company in the world. Lebby has heard from shareholders about the company’s lack of success in delivering its message. I think it’s possible to find a capable entity/IR executive without taking his eye off the ball. Replacing the current company would certainly indicate that he has listened to his shareholders. This is a no brainer in my opinion. I wouldn’t wait until there is revenue.
"We’re working with the biggest transceiver companies in the world"
Keep in mind, Lebby is working on multi-year deals, with the type of Tier 1s investors know Lebby is in negotiations with, there could easily be large up-front monies, $50 million or more is realistic, don't think it's not!!
LWLG is a once in a lifetime opportunity!!
The quotes are from the LWLG executive and should be nearly exact to what was said. While the conversation was not recorded, detailed notes were taken and the messages should be very close, if not exactly what was said.
LWLG is “close on deals”. They have "calls all week discussing the deals". Just before the conversation, the executive was on a call with a "potential counterparty to a deal".
This executive acknowledged the only thing that will move the stock price at this point is closing deals.
"I am more than confident we’ll close on probably more than one Tier 1 deal this year."
Within the next month, engineering teams from three separate companies will be visiting LWLG’s facility.
When asked if the T1 announcements will have a name attached, the response was that they "would love to be able to". Based on the NDA’s, they "can’t use a counterparty’s name without its permission". “The argument they make is that they are trying to gain a competitive advantage.”
When asked directly if they are working with NVIDIA the response was, “Let’s put it this way. Anyone not trying to work with NVIDIA is a fool and I’m no fool. What’s the old saying? I can neither confirm nor deny that we are working with NVIDIA.”
“We’re working with the biggest transceiver companies in the world.”
“Amazon wants warrants from companies to sell to them. They eat their young. I said that to a guy during a meeting – you eat your young. He just smirked.”
I will not disclose the identity of this person. Do not ask. Do not assume.

I've been adding shares since the ASM as Lebby told investors nothing had changed!! The long-standing Timeline to Commercialization has been 2024 for Customer Acceptance and Ramp into 2025 with full blown Mass Commercialization in 2026!!!
Shorts are LYING SCUMBAGS and will say LITERALLY ANYTHING to get Longs to sell their shares!!! They are criminals who worship their underworld gods of manipulation!!!
I have been invested in 3 other companies that were previously with MZ Group…all have moved on to other IR companies in the last few years. Personally, I would like to see a change.
Think1st , I fully agree, there is an urgent need to work on good reporting on a regular basis !
cheeseburger cheeseburger
All the extra cash went to buy Jim's Florida mansion. Maybe when he restocks the coffers with the vipers from LPC , we will see a change. Doubtful.

The need for Lightwave Logic’s proprietary electro-optic polymers is more evident than at any prior point in history, with internet infrastructure coming under increasing strain due to increased online activity. For example, during the recent COVID-19 pandemic, leading platforms such as YouTube prevented high-definition (HD) streaming in Europe due to data throughput issues in existing internet infrastructure.
The Company’s current focus is on the datacom and telecommunications hardware supply chain for the 100 Gbps and 400 Gbps fiber optics communications market, seeking to integrate its proprietary materials into the devices that comprise key components in today’s internet infrastructure. Lightwave Logic’s unique value proposition, including ease of manufacture relative to traditional solutions, has driven several tier-1 and tier-2 potential strategic partners in the data and telecommunications markets to enter into non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) with Lightwave Logic to evaluate its technology for use in their devices, validating the demand for the Company’s solution in the marketplace. The Company expects to introduce its technology into the commercial marketplace in the near future.
Lightwave Logic is a wholly U.S.-based company with in-house materials synthesis, device/package design, wafer fabrication and testing capabilities at its Englewood, Colorado headquarters.
Having the modulator and integrated circuit development in-house has informed the materials development direction and vice versa. This vertically integrated business model enables a superior platform by aligning the design for manufacturability from materials to complex circuits with the following benefits:
Materials are called electro-optic when they enable interactions between applied electric fields and light passing through them. Notably, they change the refractive index seen by the light with minimum loss. The result is an instantaneous and accurate conversion of an electrical signal to an optical signal. Optical signals are better for transmission over distance: an increasingly useful feature as digital signal speeds are now reaching the GHz and THz ranges and the corresponding electrical transmission distances are shrinking to meters and centimeters.
EO polymers are intrinsically superior in speed and sensitivity to electric field to traditional electro-optic materials such as Lithium Niobate, Indium Phosphide and Silicon. They are engineered materials, made by embedding a variety of specially designed electro-optic chromophore molecules into a wide range of standard host polymers.
Chromophores are complex, large molecules, on a scale akin to drug molecules. They are hyperpolarizable, meaning their electron clouds are easily pulled into a different shape by the applied electric field, changing their optical properties such as index of refraction.
The material is poled to become electro-optic by applying a strong electric field along with heat. The hot material is relatively soft, allowing the chromophore molecules suspended in the host polymer to align in the same direction (poling). Cooling the poled material after the molecules are in place traps them in their active state even after the poling field is removed.
Although the electrons in the material respond to any applied electric field, they remain tightly bound to the molecule. The response to an applied signal is almost instantaneous response and recovery– like that of a tight spring– unlike materials that involve much slower macroscopic movement of free electrons.
Another key difference from traditional crystalline materials is the performance of EO polymers continues to improve as chemists explore the almost unlimited design space. Combinations of chromophores and host polymers can be tailored for specific applications.
In addition to innovating the EO polymer materials, Lightwave Logic takes its technology platform to the next level by developing ancillary materials and processes. These elements are brought together and demonstrated in advanced high-speed optical modulators.
The polymer is spun onto silicon wafers and standard microfabrication techniques are used to deposit and pattern metal electrodes and optical waveguides.
One well-known optical modulator device is the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The light output is changed by changing the relative phase between the two arms. One common trick to double the effect for the same available drive voltage is to drive the two arms in opposite directions (push-pull mode). Polymers have an interesting advantage over most other electro-optic materials which are crystalline. The direction of polymer’s electro-optic activity is entirely determined by the direction of the applied poling field. By poling the two arms of the Mach-Zehnder in opposite directions, the resulting device automatically has push-pull operation with a single applied signal.
Once the modulator chip is made, it is packaged for mechanical protection and also to ensure signal quality for electrical and optical connections.

Inspired by the remarkable record of integrated microelectronics, the opto-electronics industry has great interest in developing photonic integrated circuits (PICS). Photonics refers to devices that manipulate photons—that is, light—rather than electrons.
Even the best individual devices can be made more functional by integrating many together. Integration has many benefits, the most notable being dramatic improvements in size and cost. Yet, photonic integration has only recently come into the spotlight. The primary applications for photonics used to require stand-alone, high performance components such as used for long-haul telecom.
Now, photonic integration has suddenly come into the spotlight as electronic interconnects struggle to keep up with speed increases of electronic chips. Photonics is being looked at to replace electronics in already highly integrated applications such as chip interconnect. Co-packaging of electronics integrated circuits (ICs) with photonic interconnect, considered unlikely a few years ago, is now viewed by many as inevitable. However, this requirement poses new challenges that are acknowledged as difficult and that new technologies will be required to meet them.
P2IC™ (Polymer Photonic Integrated Circuits) are ideally positioned to be one of these new technologies. Lightwave Logic’s devices are made using conventional wafer-scale processing such as used for microelectronics and therefore similarly capable of being integrated. In addition, the polymer microfabrication processes are compatible with other materials platforms such as Silicon Photonics and Indium Phosphide which are now starting to become more integrated. In particular, the Silicon Photonics ecosystem has recently accepted that its roadmap will include adding more and more materials, each for their specific benefits. EO polymers’ speed and voltage advantages are attractive additions to this ecosystem.
A fiber link sends data from a transmitter to a receiver through an optical fiber cable. Lightwave Logic’s technology can be used to make a data modulator, a central function of the transmitter.
Datacenters and high-performance computing (HPC) are two market segments that demand the very highest speed optical fiber communications. The datacenter fiber communications segment includes applications ranging from connections inside hyperscale datacenters to fiber links between datacenter campuses.
Optical fiber communication is the infrastructure that supports internet content through its entire lifecycle, between businesses, consumers and datacenters. Behind the scenes, massive amounts of data move between computer processors inside datacenters (or inside supercomputers) as content is generated. In addition to these intra-datacenter links, there are also significant datacenter interconnection links between big datacenters to provide flexible capacity and resilience – all of these represent significant addressable market segments for Lightwave Logic’s technology.
Modulator performance limits the speed of the transmitter, which in turn limits the data-carrying capacity of the entire fiber link. EO polymers have superior speed and sharply reduce the electrical power needed to operate the modulators.
Lightwave Logic estimates that in 2019, the total market for opto-electronic components used in the fiber optics market reached a value of ~$26 billion and is forecasted to grow to approximately $80 billion by 2030.

The growth in the optical fiber communications market is driven by many factors, primarily:
The historic trend has been a migration from text to graphics, followed by still graphics to increasingly high-definition video. On the accessibility front, the introduction of 5G will enable low-cost mobile internet connections at the same, or higher speeds, as today’s home broadband. This trend continues today as users demand more data at all times.
Recently, particularly since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a sharp increase in reliance on video-conferencing services, often replacing in-person meetings. As video conferencing becomes more commonly used, users will continue to demand faster response times to enable no-lag, real-time communications in full HD.
The benefits of EO polymers, such as low power usage, high speed, increased throughput and lower cost make them ideally suited for markets outside of communications as well, including in consumer, media, augmented reality/virtual reality, medical and industrial applications.
