NEL, Hitachi Cable, Gemfire, Furukawa Electric, JDSU and NeoPhotonics, leading companies in the planar lightwave circuit passive components industry, today announced an enhanced Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) that provides a standardized form factor for Arrayed Waveguide Grating Modules with an athermal configuration.

NeoPhotonics today announced at the European Conference and Exhibition on Optical Communications (ECOC) the general availability of its Integrated Coherent Receiver (ICR) for 100 Gbps DWDM transmission systems. The ICR is an integrated intradyne receiver based on NeoPhotonics' Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) technology.

The Nanotechnology Knowledge Transfer Network (NanoKTN), one of the UK’s primary knowledge-based networks for Micro- and Nanotechnologies, is pleased to announce details of its Nanotechnology workshops to be held at this year’s S2K conference, Europe’s leading conference for the Semiconductor, Nanotechnology and MEMS industry. The theme of this year’s event will be on the future manufacturing processes that will enable the next generation...

Marktech Optoelectronics in collaboration with Optrans Corp of Kawasaki-Shi, Japan, a leader in specialized visible and infrared emitters, sensors and assemblies have today announced the introduction of high purity, high speed InP wafers.

Imec and Genalyte announce that they have successfully developed and produced a set of disposable silicon photonics biosensor chips to be used in Genalyte diagnostic and molecular detection equipment. The chips combine imec’s standard silicon photonic waveguide devices with bio-compatible modifications jointly developed by imec and Genalyte. These chips allow for high levels of multiplexed biosensing due to the high integration level of Si phot...

The January issue of the premier scientific magazine Nature Photonics publishes an ultra-small and fast, electrically pumped all-optical memory on a silicon chip with record low power consumption. This result achieved by imec and its associated laboratory INTEC at the Ghent University, paves the way for optical packet switching with drastically reduced overall power consumption in high-speed, high-data rate optical telecommunication systems.

Ghent University (UGent) and imec today announced the creation of Caliopa, a spin-off from their world leading Photonics Research Group. An initial 2 million Euro in funding was raised from Baekeland, Fidimec, PMV-Vinnof, a private investor and the founders. Caliopa will develop and market advanced silicon photonics based optical transceivers for the data and telecommunications markets.

Automobile production, toolmaking, mechanical engineering or photovoltaics production: when there is a need for speed, cleanliness and efficiency, industrial production companies use lasers and laser systems. Ever since the first LASER in 1973, Messe München has devoted a separate exhibition area to the field of “lasers and laser systems for production”. As an international innovation platform, the “production” exhibition segment is aime...

As a key basic technology, microelectronics is the foundation for the success of the most important branches of German industry. 50 per cent of all industrial products manufactured in Germany now contain at least one electronic component. 8 out of 10 innovations in automobile construction already stem from the electrical engineering, electronics and IT industries. Optical technologies contribute a great deal to this dynamism: laser-based processe...

With 44,000 attendees, Productronica 2005 has further enhanced its position as the World's leading trade show for electronics production. Compared to Productronica 2003, the Fair made further gains in strengthening its international character: 38 percent of the exhibitors and 42 percent of the attendees were from countries other than Germany. More than 1500 exhibiting companies presented the entire spectrum of electronics production. Microproduct...
