VIDEO – POET Technologies Hits 52 Week High As “Flip-Chip” Enables The World’s Lowest-Cost and Smallest Optical Engine Of Its Kind

Understanding the world of Photonics isn’t the easiest thing small  cap investors have had to understand.  In fact, it may be the very  hardest thing they’ve ever had to understand.  However, given the fact  we are the very reason current photonics devices aren’t living up to  snuff trying to keep up with our surfing, streaming, binging and zooming  – you start to see why understanding photonics and POET Technologies  could open up investors to a whole new world. We went beyond the press release with POET management to discuss the  “Industry’s First Flip-Chip DML Lasers”  No, we didn’t understand the  title at first either ….. but the management trio on the Zoom did a  great job explaining it in terms that are both compelling yet  understandable. Before watching this video, here is some important background information. Photonics are critical to the next phase of semiconductor  development.  Semiconductors are an essential component of every  electronic device on the planet. Photonic devices create, detect and manipulate light.  Laser  generated light is fundamental to sensing, computing, data and  telecommunications, which require the fastest transfer of data possible. In short, all the surfing, streaming, binging and zooming we do requires 2 things to happen: 1. Massive data centres filled with tens of thousands of servers. 2. Speed … and we mean lighting speed that requires lasers to  transfer all that data fast enough for you not to complain about 2  second latency when searching for last minute Christmas gift ideas (We  see you) Examples of the the biggest trends sucking up all that power and speed in computing today: Cloud Computing Artificial Intelligence 5G and Edge HERE IS THE PROBLEM Making photonics devices that are reliable is expensive in terms of both capital and labour. Cost declines have not kept up with Moore’s Law, with most photonics  devices built one at a time – and multiple different components must be  able to interconnect seamlessly without constant testing. The Result? Integration of components at wafer-scale has not been  fully implemented even by the largest companies working for the past 20  years  ….. UNTIL NOW POET has developed a unique, disruptive and differentiating new entry into photonics markets. The POET Optical Interposer™ Platform – patented photonics  integration platform that enables lower cost and higher performance  across a wide range of applications. The press release announcing the industry’s first flip-chip DML lasers might very well take POET to a whole new level.
