mack, your poetf detector proto is expected by end of 2016, this is a longer wait than lightwave's modulator proto development expected timetable

from the poetf update of 4/3/16

As previously announced, POET intends to commercialize its integrated resonant cavity detector as its first product and demonstrate this prototype by the end of 2016. 6-inch detector wafers based on the POET platform, recently fabricated at POET’s foundry supplier, demonstrated superior responsivity parameters relative to best-in-class performance. POET’s detectors differ from conventional devices in that they are resonant cavity designs, which enable greater sensitivity in detector applications. Benchmark parameters, such as responsivity, on POET’s detector device far exceed the performance of detectors in the market today. At a bias voltage of 3.3V, POET detectors have demonstrated a room temperature thyristor enhanced saturated responsivity of 13A/W at an input optical power threshold of less than 200mW and at an aperture of 10mm. This is about 20X higher on a 3X smaller device relative to typical 850nm PiN diodes. These results from the first set of detector wafers produced at the production foundry provide critical proof points for POET to introduce a differentiated detector product to the market later this year.

mack question for you, what is the market size of poetf's detector if they do successfully finish a proto by the end of 2016?
