technology platform by industry experts is no small feat and it
gives us 3rd party confirmation of our work."
"Our electro-optic polymers used as ultra-fast modulators can be
integrated with integrated semiconductor platforms such as silicon
photonics to increase chip performance significantly.
Further, we can reach commercial scale using large silicon
foundries globally, and this positions us to enable the internet to
carry traffic faster and to create value for our shareholders,"
concluded Lebby.
