Title: Vertical Emitting Laser
Description: Allows for communication between vertically stacked chips rather than horizontally connected chips (mainstream technology)
Milestone: Dr. Taylor to produce vertical emitting laser at UConn Lab
Accomplished: Yes
Commentary: It's mentioned in this article by optics.org; I'd like to find a second source of verification, however.

Has the vertical emitting laser been completed yet. That is goal number 3 on the OPEL presentation. There was a posting on stockhouse that says it was completed yet i don't see that on the OPEL website. Ideas?
Insider buying? Stockhouse seems to feel like there are Canadian insiders buying? How do we know that?
Any news? Any rumors? Will we see a laser soon?
Things are definitely on the move on the US market too but we still need a Milestone!
I'm fully vested and in position. I hope there is a jump soon. The stock is slowly creeping up again. Good sign. When is the deadline for the next milestone? December?
Good post KJN
We are all hoping for a major PR soon. I hope it does come. I'm in deep!!!
I still haven't received my ballot. Not sure why, I live in California and I assume they were mailed from CT.
Did I read on the other stock message board where you post that you had sold off some OPEL stocks Seven?
I sure hope that apple and Intel send a representative to the AGM
Thanks Seven! Do you still have the post you made some months ago where you did the same analysis. I could have sworn that you used the same number of shares in the equation but you concluded that if OPEL sold for 1B, each share would be worth five dollars.
I didn't word it right. Some time ago you took the entire number of shares that were sold and divided that into the amount the company could sell for, such as 1 Billion. You then created a price per share that opel would be worth. NOw, since there are three million shares out for the loan, the stock will be more diluted. So, if the company sold today for 1B, what would each share be worth.
Do you know what the dilution rate is for this stock now? For instance, if the stock is eventually valued at $5/share and you have 50K shares, what will your folio be worth?
Leon Pierhal out! Got it!
That's pretty much what I needed to know.
The new corporate presentation that you just posted, was that highlighted on the odis site or did you have to dig to find it? I'm surprised they didn't do a PR on it.
Might this be a good time to buy?
Is anything much happening at OPEL/ODIS these days? Is everything quiet?
Thanks Seven, can you give us some insight on this NEW funding source. Is this a dilution to the shares? It kind of looks like it
Has anyone heard about any new PR's coming out? A new timeline? An estimated completion date? Anything? I'd like to buy some more shares...but need a little affirmation first!
I'm in the same place. I have an E-TRADE order for 300 shares but no confirmation or reject yet. I think it might happen hours before the market opens. No sleep tonight

NEW TARIFFS ON CHINESE SOLAR
When I come across Server Farm companies or other types of companies that can use Poet Technology, I contact their executives and tell that I'm interested in investing but wanted to see if they would be upgrading soon to POET.
I'm a bit confused by this. I have had OPELF stock for some time. Did they just switch to a different exchange?
My only worry about the actual technology is from the youtube audio tape of the CEO conferences, I think that there are four of them. One of the callers asks about the "usual problems of GaAs and how POET deals with it. The tape gets muffled for just about a second and then another topic is introduced.
I showed him a small piece of it and he basically said that combining the two types of IC on a monolithic chip was impressive. He worried about volume as GaAs tends to have problems with that. He thought they might come out with the first chip them improve it from there. GaAs does date back as you have noted but still not as common as Si. It would be great to know if Apple or someone like that is looking at it.
Thanks, good info Seven! I asked my techie friend if GaAs and Si are compatible...his reply
The two chips can sit next to each other easily. They can be combined into a single multi chip package, but its a bit costly. They can be directly bonded to each other, face to face (do the digital processing on the silicon, do the radio on the GaAs) and its a bit more expensive still. Many manufacturers offer this capability but its not done in enormous volume as far as I know. Combining the digital and radio function onto a single chip like GaAs is easier and cheaper because there are fewer parts, but putting both functions on a single chip may demand compromises so you don't get the best possible digital processor or the best possible radio. But it will be simpler and more compact which may be very important.
Can you mix silicon with GaAs? I've heard that Intel is born and bred silicon and has no desire to change.
Thanks, great information seven! I looked at the ODIS site but couldn't find the new ROADMAP link, can you provide that for us.
That makes sense! I think that you answered my question in that if the price of the stock goes up to $5, what I will earn. I hope it goes higher but time will tell.
Nope, I'm just an investor that's good at reading every document in site, I just don't have a background in physics and technology. I'm more pharmaceuticals and Health. My second exciting stock other than opel is my screen name. It's a bit less risky then opel but it's a longer wait.
In an ideal world, how many shares should an individual investor have of OPEL considering the time line you set up? Is 20K shares enough?
Thanks for sharing your expertise with us. I wish I had your business background.
Here is a slightly odd question. Let's say that in 6 months, for example, POET takes off and sells to all the key military contractors and commercial computer companies. After those millions or more are made, is that the end? By reading the valuation report it looked like once the market has been saturated with POET technology, the proverbial "party" is over and it's time to sell. Your thoughts?
Didn't the Canadian stock only drop 5 points? That's not the trauma I thought might happened. The American stock didn't change a bit and only 10K stock were traded. Price still at .29. I think people are understanding that POET is the future of this stock!
I'm kind of hoping they sell off the solar business and get some money for the trackers.
Speculating of course, any guesses on when POET can become marketable?
Have you heard anything about large SBIR cuts for 2012?
Financials come out in one month for the period of Oct 2011 to March 2012. anyone have information on what these financials will look like?
Thanks for your opinions and information. They make sense. I always figured that the solar business was a fund raiser for POET but as you noted, the solar business is brutal because of the price of the panels. I still believe that POET can make a fortune and they will toss the solar aspect. If prices drop a lot on Monday, I'm joining you and buying more!
This doesn't sound great but probably what I expected. Do you have a take on this? I guess if stocks drop on Monday it's a good time to buy! I hope ODIS comes out with some positive news soon! This would be a good time
