Analog Photonics’ optical phased array beam steerer is a self-contained module that performs 2D solid-state beam steering. Rapidly configurable wavefronts are emitted out-of-plane from a silicon photonic integrated circuit using optical phase shifters controlled with custom CMOS drivers.
Analog Photonics’ near-infrared narrow linewidth laser utilizes silicon photonics for low-cost and high-volume production. This laser is ideal for applications such as optical communication and LiDAR sensing.
Our proprietary silicon photonics technology integrate couplers, splitters, modulators, detectors and athermal wavelength-division-multiplexed filters into optical engines. The optical engines simultaneously offer best-in-class bandwidth density and energy efficiency compared to any datacenter pluggable optical module with support up to 100Gb/lane standard electrical interfaces. The optical engines are versatile and can be integrated into multiple form factors; 800G optical modules, on-board optics or co-packaged optics solutions.
When companies use an Analog Photonics – SUNY Polytechnic Process Design Kit (PDK) under AIM Photonics, they not only have access to the most up-to-date silicon photonics PDK, but also access to a community driving and enabling tomorrow’s silicon photonics design methodologies.
