Patent 11,042,051 refers to "The direct-drive region-less polymer modulator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the multilayer waveguide has a propagation loss less than 2.2 dB/cm with device insertion
loss less than 6 dB."
It also states the device has r33 > 250 pm/V and drive voltage of about 0.5V.
Could you elaborate an whether or not those numbers are what the industry is looking for, and how today's announcement affects them?
I'm still trying to piece together a better understanding of where the company is and what it still needs to do.
