Applied Nanotools Inc.

Can you design, fabricate, package, and market a PIC-based product in less than 12 months? Light Trace Photonics achieved this feat with their revolutionary new training tool, the LightPort: ✅ Designed with LTP’s expertise ✅ Fabricated using our (ANT) rapid prototyping PIC foundry service ✅ Packaged by PHIX in their characterisation package during development ✅ Brought to market in <12 months and now packaged in PHIX’s large-area gold box for volume production To assist others in making their product development dreams come true, Light Trace Photonics has released new design templates, ensuring that our rapid prototyping customers can seamlessly package their chips using the characterisation package available from PHIX Photonics Assembly! PHIX’s characterisation package offers a cost-effective, high-speed way to package early chip prototypes while ensuring seamless transition to volume production. Now, with the design templates from Light Trace Photonics, you can de-risk development and accelerate your path to market. 🚀 Access the templates here: https://lnkd.in/eFWQd2Rx 🚀 Check out the LightPort below! #Photonics #PIC #Innovation #RapidPrototyping #LightTracePhotonics #PHIX #ANT #Semiconductors

🎉 Happy 2025 to all! 🎉 Luceda Photonics has compiled a comprehensive list of 2025 #MPW photonics fab tape-outs, which includes our 220 nm SOI rapid prototyping process. Sub-wavelength silicon components, thermo-optic phase shifters, through-cladding windows, edge couplers, and thermal isolation trenches will all be available in our tape-outs! Design your layout with the Luceda IPKISS Platform, KLayout, GDSFactory, or any other tools of your choosing by visiting our Design Center: https://lnkd.in/gxpFhUaC Please reach out to us at support@appliednt.com if you need any assistance preparing layouts for our upcoming February 4th and March 18th tape-out review deadlines. #LucedaPhotonics #MPWtapeout #MultiProjectWafer #2025MPWschedule #tapeoutpreparation

We are pleased to announce the publication of our article titled "A Moderate Confinement O-, S-, C-, and L-Band Silicon Nitride Platform Enabled by a Rapid Prototyping Integrated Photonics Foundry Process" in IEEE Photonics Journal. The paper discusses the features of our silicon nitride integrated photonics platform and the performance of the various components included in its PDK, which are commercially available to our customers through our NanoSOI Design Center: https://lnkd.in/gxpFhUaC This work is the culmination of a long-standing project we have had with Jonathan Bradley's research group at McMaster University, which has become a thriving collaboration between academia and industry as we continue to develop our SiN process capabilities. Many thanks to all our co-authors and collaborators involved, and to IEEE for publishing the paper. Please reach out to us if you are interested in having your silicon nitride devices fabricated using our rapid prototyping process!

Congratulations M.Amin Mahdian, Kaveh (Hassan) Rahbardar Mojaver, Mahdi Nikdast et al! Another successful publication enabled by the NanoSOI prototyping service.

Congratulations to the team at the BEAmline for synchrotron X-ray microTomography (BEATS) at the Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East (SESAME | Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East) on the commissioning of the new beamline. At Applied Nanotools Inc. we were pleased to provide the custom calibration standard target which was imaged using X-ray radiography to show the resolution of the new beamline going down to 2 µm. You can read the full specifications and results from the new beamline in the recently published article at https://lnkd.in/gKSd7sB9 #Synchrotron #optics #research #science #innovation

Applied Nanotools Inc. is at #ECOC! Come visit us at booth F16, and find out how we can help accelerate your silicon or silicon nitride PIC prototyping work!

Applied Nanotools will be at #ECOC 2024 next week, September 23-25! We are excited to share information on our upcoming 2025 offerings, including multilayer silicon MPW runs, and 150 nm-thick silicon nitride waveguides for visible-light and near-IR prototyping applications. Come visit us at booth F16, and discover how our fast-turnaround fabrication service can meet your research and prototyping needs. #integratedphotonics #silicon #optics #conference #appliednt ECOC Exhibition

We are hiring! We are looking for a candidate for the position with our team. As a leading company in nanofabrication and optics, the position will provide an opportunity to join a unique team with our X-ray and EUV optics division as well as with NanoSOI, our integrated photonics foundry, which is Canada's leading foundry for rapid-prototyping integrated photonics chips.

Congratulations to the winners of the SRI 2024 crossword puzzles. Prizes went out to Ilaria, Duan, Bihan, Gerard, Jia, and Kuan as well as several runner-ups. You can still do the puzzle at www.appliednt.com/sri-2024. Prizes included resolution targets, e-reader, headphones and discounts on our zone plate optics or other products. It has been an excellent conference and great to see many of the advances in synchrotron optics. It is great to be a small part of the innovations and discoveries happening. We look forward to the next conference with #sri2027! #sri2024hamburg #sri2024 #photonscience #lightsources #diffraction #xray see also our puzzle from XRM 2024 at www.appliednt.com/xrm-2024

We are excited to be here in Hamburg, Germany for the SRI 2024 Conference with a presentation today in room E (13:30). Prizes for those who finish the crossword puzzle will be handed out later at the conference. See www.appliednt.com/sri-2024
