Nrdc92,

Maybe you will find this new white paper as interesting as I did?!?
https://www.jeppix.eu/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/White-paper-on-design-agnostic-PIC-validation_V1.0.pdf

It comes from a collaboration between JePixx (European Foundry) and Fraunhoffer in Germany...
I think it very clearly speaks about the fact that we are witnessing the birth of a new high-volume industry, where photonics is following in the tracks of the electronics industry, working in collaboration with them actually...
And to me it also clearly helps understand the delay between LWLG announcing its intent to work with foundries in 2021 (video with Global Foundry Anthony Yu) and starting commercialization in 2024: the ecosystem had to be built from scratch! from making sure the foundries could work with polymers (as a material (ASM22)), then back to the PIC design houses, then back to testing 3rd party designs at the foundries (ASM23), then defining high volume testing processes with the help of newly invented testing equipment (like Keysight equipment measuring past 110Ghz), etc...
We're at the heart of inventing a new industry here!!!

No wonder Michael Lebby was chosen to be the head of Optica next year: we're the engine to making photonics a high-volume manufacturing industry, following the path defined by electronics 50 years ago!
Polymers are the glue that brought Silicon Phonics and/or InP forward to the point it will be able to answer the market's most advanced performance demands in terms of speed and reduced power consumption to the point of being compatible with high-volume manufacturing (LWLG winner of the Most Innovative Hybrid PIC/Optical Integration Platform Award at ECOC2023)
We've been here a long time and for sure some have been caught on the wrong side of a head-fake trade, but make no mistake about it: we bet on the right solution to answer the next move forward of humanity's technological long march.
Electro-optics are the solution today and Lightwave Logic Polymer Photonic EO modulators-based ICs are the heart of this solution!
Commercialization has started and will gain speed in the coming years.

We're just about getting there. "It's happening!"
