Some changes seem to be always around the corner
and then they move faster than expected and you are caught flat-footed.
The best would’ve a companies forecast of revenues!!
A sharp increase in licensing revenues may also be a trigger for such coverage!
Watch out for the forthcoming Qs!!!
It may be highly uncomfortable to be caught with your pant down, or your shorts high, whichever applies ... LOL

"It turns out that the prevention of oxygen diffusing into the plasmonic device also protects it from other agents”.
This line caught my attention. Some of us have speculated on the slow development of the ALD engineering. If I read this correctly, the plasmonic device provides hermetic protection itself.
Reliability Data
24th September 2024
Polariton Technologies announces today a groundbreaking generation of plasmonic electro-optic non-hermetically packaged modulators for applications at temperatures up to 85 °C. Such devices will be essential supporting future data center connectivity with 1.6T and 3.2T optical transceivers. This corresponds to 400 Gbit/s intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) per single lane and to coherent dual-polarization 1.6 Tbit/s modulation per wavelength for inter-data center communication.
The announcement is made in conjunction with an accepted paper at the European Conference for Optical Communication (ECOC) 2024 and a talk given by Wolfgang Heni, co-CTO of Polariton, in Frankfurt this week; “We have been testing dozens of devices in continuous operation and long-term storage at various temperatures. It turns out that the prevention of oxygen diffusing into the plasmonic device also protects it from other agents”.
The paper published at ECOC displays long-term measurement for more than 4000 hours continuous operation in air with less than 10% in Vp variation. An increase of Vp is usually associated with the degradation of the electro-optic material, the stability of the other key performance indicators is the result of an effective encapsulation from the environment and stressors like oxygen, water, and heat.
Further highlights of the paper include a predictable insertion loss of the plasmonic slot of 0.4 dB/µm and grating couplers that attenuate light by less than 2 dB. On top of optical transceivers, the new generation of modulators targets microwave photonics and microwave antennas up to 300 GHz
Manny have told numerous times to sell sell sell.
But you can’t because this is what you do you probably don’t even own any lwlg stock
I still think there used to be a jacked up reason we are trading at these shit levels
I think it is a chicken/egg situation. An analyst does not want to put out a buy recommendation when things are still murky and the timeline unspecified. I think we will see analysts come on board only after we see some kind of "tier 1" announcement from LWLG.
With Italian immigrant parents, I'm a big gardner. To build you're patience, try planting some asparagus crowns 8" deep and wait to harvest 3 years so they are permanently established!
I’m way beyond impatient. This is ridiculous!!
Some of you impatient guys should take up gardening. Gardening can be good therapy. Plant some potatoes or something. With potatoes, it doesn't look like much on the surface until you start to dig up the garden... Those damned potatoes must sign NDAs or something LOL! Vein???
He has been going to these conferences for years now. He has never been able to connect any dots. They come and go with world record results and Lebby can't get a signature from anyone but he is excited. 🤣🤣🤣
Why do people act like it's a big deal to get a buy order filled ?
I had 4 buy orders and they all filled. Hip hip hurry, I say only 40 of my last 50 filled. Based on the volume it should be a decent afternoon.
X
Looks like your orders filled, if not even more today, eh?
Lots available.
Please provide factual information.
Your “belief” ain’t worth doodly-squat.
Why are you still here, dude. You were late to the game, lost money, so get out.
I had high praise for you with your short calls in the 8 range. Now you are all over the place and make up whatever you want. You broke my heart Fredo.
11.9 BILLION shares outstanding LMAO. And shorties here want to worry about our dilution.... SMH
I had a feeling 3 bucks was too much to handle
That’s all we have are interviews and commentary!!
I believe there is way less shares short than posted with all the games played in the dark pool. JMO
I'm probably missing something, so I apologize in advance. Is there any chance Lightwave and Polariton are using a bigger, more established foundry for their 200m wafers than AMF? or is it common knowledge for everybody (except me) that it's AMF
Jose Pozo on LinkedIn less than 30 minutes ago:
"LEBBY ON AI AND EXPECTATIONS FROM Optica GLOBAL PHOTONICS ECONOMIC FORUM in Malaga, next week. My fascinating visit to Lightwave Logic, Inc. in Colorado seems to have triggered many conversations here on Linkedin and elsewhere. Here are a couple of extra thoughts Michael Lebby had on the relevance of photonics to AI, competing with copper, and what he expects to hear from top CEO's next week in Malaga. I hope you will also be in the audience. https://lnkd.in/efgFrbqq
https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7244713374129815553/
We shall see!!! Hoping for it to be sure.
Will be interesting to see what follow-through commentary comes from Optica Conference next week. In addition to Dr. Lebby leading discussion with former Coherent CEO and others, also have Global Foundries CTO presenting.
9k shorts played this morning, low volume, 3k more sells than buys and the price is even. I have my buy orders below yesterdays close, so none have filled yet.
X Not seeing a dominant MM so no games by them today. I'll watch for 11:20 then adjust accordingly
I hear you Matt, but they initiate coverage on pre-revenue companies all the time. That's what they get paid to do...
I think we are a lot closer to coverage than we might imagine...
F2
They won’t initiate coverage until they have revenues. They can’t asses LWLG’s past and projected performance as there are no clients yet of substance. Once we get legitimate recurring revenue then we should get coverage, IMHO.
I cannot honestly imagine how nervous I would be to be on the hook for so many shares short with no exit strategy. That fact that they can watch developments and still believe this company will not be in a venture with a Tier 1 company or simply bought out at a much higher price in the VERY NEAR future is astounding. All the hand writing is on the wall. 10,000 industry experts, partnerships with foundries and new/fast movers with new technology all point to adoption... it's insane to be on the hook for that kind of bet against the company. But to each their own. I smell fear personally...

From Goole's AI Overview
…
Plasmonics has many advantages for use in optical modulators, including:
Compact size: Plasmonic nanostructures are ultra-thin, lightweight, and ultra-compact, which can overcome some limitations of traditional optical elements.
High bandwidth: Plasmonic modulators can have high bandwidths.
Low power consumption: Plasmonic modulators can potentially have low power consumption.
Tight confinement: Plasmonic technologies can achieve the tightest confinement of all photonic technologies.
Light-matter interaction: Plasmonics can enhance light-matter interaction, which can lead to efficient electro-optic modulators (EOMs).
Reduced structure length: Plasmonics can allow for a significant reduction in structure length, which is important for densely co-integrated electronic photonic circuits.
Resonance phenomena: Some state-of-the-art plasmonic EOMs use resonance phenomena and multi-pass schemes to improve their modulation performance.
and if you add Lightwave's polymers it could be like "changing the 4 cylinder engine to a V8 engine" without altering the device structure. The small and compact structure would be ideal in data centers where the landscape is very tight. Lightwave and Polariton seems a very good match.
X give us a fucking break, you know nothing and have no secrets. You have been pumping this crap from $20 down to $2.50.
Not very exciting. Just another carrot. The timeline from sampling to scaled up production is 2-3 years. Like I said nothing is happening here until 2026/2027, regarding plasmonics or anything else, and that's if everything goes perfect. We all know these clowns will fumble the ball at some point along the way.
Lots of dilution between now and then and too many variables to list. This is still not a viable investment.
SELL as this is the only "news" you're getting until the next ASM.
#scam
Go away loser!!!!!! Quit pumping your sellout chicom stock.
Has plasmonics "caught up" with non-plasmonics? The prevailing view has been that they are several years behind Lightwave's non-plasmonic modulator development and now we have these ECOC announcements that sound like that may no longer be the case.
A few months ago someone said plasmonic modulators were leading the way - and I asked at the time if that meant the non-plasmonic development had hit some snags - it was hard to imagine that they actually leapfrogged in development by years...still is a bit hard to swallow so the skeptical hat stays on while acknowledging the positive development at the same time..
Modulator sampling is good. So now we have sampling for both plasmonics and non-plasmonics, and it appears both coming from a foundry on a 200mm wafer. Almost for sure AMF, which evidence points to as the only foundry that so far has successfully poled an entire 200mm wafer with their polymer.
Time will tell whether the industry is open to these developments and whether "scalable" is a word that really conveys commercial readiness or not.
Can you be scalable with a 30% yield? Yes, you can, but who is going to buy it? Not saying the yield is 30% but it is possible there is something they aren't telling us. Increasingly though it looks positive..
The true indicator will be if a large transceiver company is willing to use their modulators in a transceiver. No large company is going to partner if they don't think the data is sufficient, and it appears that is what we have seen to date..hopefully will change soon.
However, this company has earned distrust with their both their past and present misleading guidance, despite the weird efforts of the cut and paste man - who has imo has only served to further undermine the company's credibility even further over the last 12 years in which he has operated.
Lightwave has to earn the trust back..

Serious question. At this point now, how close are we to an analyst beginning to initiate coverage of the company? I know we have been told there are 6-8 who are in dialogue all the time... I would think we can't be far off after yesterday's after hours release. That would be a game changer very quickly ... my personal feeling is we just got to where I could see it happening at any point now. Thoughts?
Best to the longs,
F2
Thanks Proto, didn’t even think about the ability of selling ‘off the shelf’ micro ring resonators (MRR’s) and to leapfrog Intel/Ayer.
So AMF is able to produce 200 mm wafers based on MRR, MZ technology, plasmonics and silicon modulators and direct sales to transceiver companies and end users like the Googles, Facebooks etc. Lebby executing his business strategy as indicated already years ago. The works of a real High Tech CEO.

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.
Below is a polymer optical modulator with >60 GHz bandwidth packaged with high-speed electrical connectors and optical pigtails.
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.
Above: Market forecasts for photonic (electro-optic) components and transceivers used in optical fiber communications. (Source: Oculi LLC)
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.
Developing, protecting and commercializing intellectual property is central to Lightwave Logic’s identity as a technology company. Lightwave Logic has over 50 U.S. and international patents and applications that are issued or pending.
