Demonstration Combines Polariton's
High-Speed Plasmonic Modulators with Lightwave's Perkinamine™
Chromophores in a Packaged Device
ENGLEWOOD, Colo.
and ADLISWIL, Switzerland,
Sept. 24,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lightwave Logic, Inc. (NASDAQ:
LWLG), a technology platform company leveraging its proprietary
electro-optic (EO) polymers to transmit data at higher speeds with
less power in a small form factor, today announced a collaboration
with Polariton Technologies to demonstrate a packaged device with
over 110 GHz super high bandwidth packaged electro-optic polymer
modulators using Polariton's plasmonic modulator device design that
contains Lightwave's proprietary PerkanamineTM
chromophores at the European Conference on Optical Communications
(ECOC) being held in Frankfurt,
Germany from September 22-26,
2024. The device will be available for viewing at
Polariton's booth #F47.
The packaged device contains a plasmonic
modulator using electro-optic polymer material and platform chips
have demonstrated 400 Gbps, which is the current specification that
datacenters are looking for in optical transceiver modules.
Dr. Michael Lebby,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lightwave Logic, said:
"Building on our previous collaborations, we look forward to
showcasing this packaged device to customers in attendance at what
is a premier industry event. This is an example of extending the
performance of silicon photonics using both plasmonics as well as
electro-optic polymers. Further, this collaboration forms an
important technology platform for scalability using large silicon
foundries for mass commercialization with 200mm silicon wafers. We
look forward to sharing with ECOC attendees how the combination of
electro-optic polymers and plasmonics can support datacenters
around the world which are responding to high power consumption and
the burgeoning demand for higher speed data transmission from
artificial intelligence, machine learning, and other cloud-based
services."
Dr. Wolfgang Heni,
Co-CTO at Polariton, added: "Our collaboration combines our decade
of experience in plasmonic circuits with Lightwave Logic's
excellent high-performance electro-optic material. This device
enables ultra-high bandwidths, which are extremely well suited for
next generation internet and optical networking transceivers that
require 200Gbps per lane today, and 400Gbps per lane soon. We look
forward to additional collaborations in the future to demonstrate
the capability of our combined technologies at 1.6 Tbps and 3.2
Tbps. We welcome ECOC attendees to visit our booth for more
information."
