Thx proto, I had forgotten about that little nugget...
This is interesting from SMART Photonics website...
INSPIRE
INSPIRE aims to revolutionize photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology by combining two technologies, InP photonics and SiN photonics, in a single platform through wafer-scale micro-transfer printing technology. This platform will allow to combine high-performance III-V opto-electronic components (semiconductor optical amplifiers, high-speed phase modulators and photodetectors) operating in the C-band with the high-performance passive functionality of the SiN platform (high performance filters, 5dB/m waveguide loss), on 200mm wafers.
Proto, I particularly like some of the quotes in the video, from Nov. 2022, where Dr Lebby appears at the 3rd min mark:
"our business model is that of a foundry" "some of the market we target besides Tele- and Datacom are Lidar, healthcare, sensing, displays.... where millions and millions of optical chips are going to be used in the coming decades..." "we own all the different processes needed and required to produce Indium Phosphide wafers in house, which means we can act and react very fast... to produce low power photonic ICs..." "we have received over 75 millions Euros in funding from the EU to scale up and drive the technology" "... we are at the center of a broad ecosystem, built around Photondelta, where a lot of partners contribute custom solutions..." "... we at Smart Photonics aim to be the leading global photonic InP foundry..."
Just good to hear all around, and to find LWLG at the center of it all...
