Optical Phased Arrays
Miniature optical phased arrays (OPAs) are powering a revolution in high-resolution remote sensing. We develop miniature solid-state optical phased arrays for applications in automotive, industrial and earth imaging.
A summary of our applications.
AR/VR
Photonic integrated circuits are key components in wearable retinal projection technology, enabling precise control of red, green and blue projector beams for augmented and virtual reality applications.
Photonic Biosensor
Photonic biosensors combine the sensitivity and speed of photonic sensing with bio recognition elements to enable label-free rapid testing in a compact chip. The underlying photonic technology can be adapted to detect an unrivalled range of biological agents ranging from DNA, proteins and cells to environmental pollutants and food contaminants.
Microwave Photonics
The hybrid microwave photonics platform enables high-frequency signal processing and provides significant benefits over conventional free-space optics systems and RF-circuitry. The unique properties of our proprietary integrated photonics platform are imperative in beamforming applications in 5G wireless mobile networks, Satellite communication, Aerospace communication and Quantum processing.
OCT
Being transparent over a long wavelength range, silicon-nitride based TriPleXTM photonic integrated circuits are applied in many applications outside the communication band. In the medical market the application of Optical Coherence Tomography is gaining more and more interest. In ophthalmology OCT …
Tunable Laser
Our hybrid assembly approach to silicon-nitride based photonic integrated circuits is applied in our narrow-linewidth tunable laser. This laser has an ultra-narrow linewidth and is tunable over a the whole C-band. The combination of wavelength accuracy with tunability makes …
