POET and Luxmux enter into supply agreement
POET Technologies, a developer of opto-electronic fabrication processes, has announced a long-term agreement to supply superluminescent diode (SLED) products to Luxmux Technology, a Canadian developer of miniaturised photonics systems for next-generation light sensing systems.
POET Technologies, through its wholly owned subsidiary DenseLight Semiconductors, will design and manufacture multiple wavelength SLED sets for Luxmux to integrate into products used across a number of photonic applications.
POET's CEO Suresh Venkatesan commented: "We are pleased to be partnering with Luxmux, a leader in innovative photonic and optic technologies, to leverage our unique superluminescent diodes for use in their leading photonic products. This collaboration also provides both companies with expanded future opportunities to develop and commercialise additional integrated SLED optoelectronic technologies."
Luxmux's president and CEO Yonathan Dattner stated: "Engaging with POET Technologies as a supplier and strategic partner is an important milestone for Luxmux, as it increases our capabilities in the photonics market. We researched several suppliers and selected the Denselight SLED because of its unparalleled quality and performance. We are excited by the opportunities afforded by this collaboration as well as the technologies this partnership will enable us to bring to the market."
As part of the confidentiality clause of the agreement, POET is prohibited from disclosing specifics regarding the supply order or scope of the partnership.
