That’s right! Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute HHI has made some significant improvements to their Multi-Project Wafer service 💪🏼 🔹 The fabrication of Photonic Integrated Circuits needs precise and thorough planning 🔍 Long fabrication does not only affect the current wafer run but also has an impact on upcoming wafer runs. Fraunhofer HHI’s stable fabrication process now enables fast prototyping with lead times of less than 5 months for multi-project and dedicated wafer runs 🔥 🔹 Customers now benefit from improvements of crucial building blocks, leading to lower optical losses, higher optical output power and increased speed 🚀 Better performance of the DFB laser allows customers to design high-density PICs 💡 Would you like to hear more about Fraunhofer HHI’s latest developments? Talk to them directly at ECOC! You will find Axel Schönau and his colleagues at stand C57 in the exhibition hall 🤝🏼 #photonicseu #multiprojectwafer #ecoc
