Interesting news Slim_Jim. Can any silicon photonics gurus explain how the Synopsys and Juniper investment in a new company pursuing silicon photonics relates to Lightwave's polymer technology? Would we be "additive" to their systems? Thanks!

The new company's open silicon photonics platform will include integrated lasers, optical amplifiers, and a full suite of photonic components to form a complete solution that will be accessible through a Process Design Kit (PDK). The platform will enable a new level of integration at an unmatched price point, with the lowest power consumption for high-performance Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs).

How can there be an unmatched price point if the platform incorporates optical amplifiers? And again how can the platform boast the lowest power consumption when the DSP chips use “watts of power.” Other than those two points, this reads just like Lebby describes Lightwave’s technology. Perhaps I am confusing optical amplifiers and DSP chips!!

Oh my oh my guys.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

Synopsys and Juniper details not fully disclosed,,,, um,,,,very interesting. Open Source,,,, pretty sure this is it.

Remember that Lightwave needs a an InP laser on a silicon chip and LWLGs polymer is compatible with both InP and Silicon. Three times the speed at half the power.

For the record an optical amplifier is just that, it is for the laser. Lightwaves driverless patent refers to the electric side of things. The electrons rolling off the Silicon have enough power to make lightwaves material flinch and embed the 1's and 0's directly into a laser. Lightwave also has a patent on a grate couplers to move the laser through to another level or off the chip.

This one totally has my curiosity peaked, pretty sure it is a duck.
