OpenLight, which launched as an independent company in June last year, is developing an open silicon photonics platform with integrated lasers for customers designing photonic integrated circuits (PICs) for datacom, telecom, lidar, healthcare, HPC, AI, and optical computing applications.
The firm made two big announcements at OFC in San Diego this year: a Process Design Kit (PDK) Sampler to accelerate component testing, and a 224G InP-based Modulator to advance PIC designs for the datacom market.
OpenLight CEO Dr Adam Carter spoke with Electro Optics to take us through the two announcements, which according to him led to 2023 being his busiest OFC in 25 years of attendance.
He also spoke on some of the future markets that will drive the uptake of PIC technology.
Increasing customer confidence in photonic integrated circuits
Doubling PIC speeds with InP-based modulators
Future-proofing the silicon photonics ecosystem
