Poet PPS getting a lot of mileage out of these YouTube stock pump guys!! This is about the 4th time one of these little videos has been posted and each time there is a good rally ignited!!
for any newbies just be aware that the latest news regarding 3.2 development is using super power hungry EML's, here read this post
85Ghz and PAM6 will not win the 400G per lane market. It'll likely be first to market, like today's 200G per lane announcements largely using InP EML. I bet a module using those lasers/modulators is pushing 40-50 Watts. That's insane. We'll see data in 2026 it sounds like. EOP (and TFLN, too) will be drastically more energy efficient than InP for 400G/lane. EOP certainly lower cost/simpler designs as well.
Cool news for POET though. They need to tell the market who has rights to the revenue for their 800G+ optical engines. So far, their Chinese JV has rights to nearly all the revenue from their previously announced collaborations. Not many people understand that or are willing to acknowledge it. Those sales never show up as revenue for POET and that cash stays in China with the JV. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=175111440&txt2find=poet
now just look at the specs Polariton using off the shelf MRR's coated with LWLG materials are achieving world class specs here
Polariton News Release 400gb MRR's Using LWLG Materials!! September 22, 2024 Zurich, Switzerland
Polariton Technologies announces having achieved experimental IM/DD data rate in excess of 400 GBit/s per lane using commercial off-the-shelf ring resonator modulators in a collaboration with its research partner ETH Zurich and material supplier Lightwave Logic Inc. These are to be used in products such as 1.6T and 3.2T transceivers. This significant milestone sets a paradigm shift for the optical communication industry and paves the way for next-generation connectivity.
“ETH Zurich already demonstrated 400G per lane at OFC this year employing Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZM). This novel achievement is performed using ring resonator modulators (RRM), which are the better fit for the application because of considerably lower losses. The device loss is in the range of best-in-class modulators at 1.2 dB. Polariton is well-positioned for the 1.6T and 3.2T transceiver market with the 400G per lane products” explained Claudia Hoessbacher, CEO of Polariton.
The measurements were performed earlier in 2024 using devices optimized for 1550 nm operation. They demonstrate top performance with extinction ratio of 11.2 dB and a flat electro-optic response up to 110 GHz. “The reason we stopped measuring at 110 GHz is because we did not have calibrated instruments above 110 GHz at that time. In the meantime, we started characterizing the devices at 145 GHz and we developed devices optimized for 1310 nm wavelength operation”, commented Benedikt Bauerle, co-CTO of Polariton.
In an industry that has been forced to go parallel because of technological limitations, Polariton provides immediate relief for the next-generation products. Parallel lines fall short with reliability problems, are costly and consume more power than compact approaches that support higher transmission per lane.
Starting in October 2024, Polariton will offer early access to customers with sample quantities of 1310 and 1550 devices. This week, the company is also highlighting the advancement of its commercial devices at the European Conference for Optical Communication (ECOC) in Frankfurt.
