VSK moves into InP production facilities (Fiber News)

VSK Photonics, a startup manufacturer of InP active optical components based in Lake Forest, CA, has moved into a new 21 000 sq. ft production facility. The company will produce InP-based photodetectors, modulators and lasers for transceivers and modules in 10 Gbit/s and next-generation 40 Gbit/s systems. Founded December 2000, VSK received $6 million in financing from Lighthouse Capital Partners to equip the new plant, which follows an $18 million investment earlier this year from Intel and Morgenthaler Ventures (see Compound Semiconductor May 2001, p15). "From our beginnings as a startup with exciting technology, we have now reached the next stage of corporate maturity," said Don Ackley, president and CEO. "We are increasingly well-positioned to become an integral part of the communications industry s next growth phase."
