1310nm Wavelength, Popular in Hyperscale
Datacenter Applications, Represents the Primary Area of
Focus
ENGLEWOOD, Colo., March 22,
2023 /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, today announced that its latest commercial-class
EO polymer material has achieved breakthrough performance metrics
at 1310 nanometers (nm), a wavelength popular in hyperscale
datacenter applications.
These commercial-class improvements include a significantly
higher electro-optic coefficient exceeding 200 pm/V, which allows
for very low drive power of 1 volt or less. Other characteristics
include optimized chromophore loading, superior low optical loss,
excellent temporal stability at 85 Celsius, and extremely high
thermal and photo stability. The breakthrough commercial-class EO
material is expected to enable ultra-small footprint modulators
with at least 100 GHz bandwidth as well as meeting all critical
requirements for pluggable transceivers, on-board optics and
co-packaging solutions.
"The achievement of these results at the 1310nm bandwidth
positions us for potential near-term licensing opportunities in
datacenter applications," said Dr. Michael
Lebby, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lightwave
Logic. "Our robust progress with our proprietary chromophores will
allow us to provide competitive performance above and beyond other
optical modulator competitors in use today. At a recent industry
conference, we heard from the hyperscale industry that polymers
offer important performance advantages as compared to other optical
modulators in use today – reflective of our significant progress
with our proprietary chromophores.
"As we move through 2023, our technology is well positioned to
serve as the industry's next-generation super-high-performance
engine that enables high speed, low power and small footprints for
pluggable transceivers, on-board optics and co-packaging solutions
in datacenter applications and beyond. I look forward to providing
our shareholders with further updates in the near-term as we move
to commercialization," concluded Lebby.
