We provide end-to-end silicon photonic manufacturing that supports both current and future technologies

Our Multi-Project Wafers shorten design time, improve manufacturing efficiency, and lower the cost of entry for companies to develop new silicon photonics applications

We help small and medium enterprises to develop innovative products and services by providing them with technology on-ramps

We are one of nine Manufacturing Innovation Institutes established by the U.S. Department of Defense to advance new technology and capabilities

We offer start-ups, designers and developers, and academic researchers access to a supporting infrastructure of services across the entire silicon photonics development cycle: design, simulation, fabrication, packaging, validation, and a path to volume manufacturing.
