Scaling Photonics. Securing Supply.

From Prototype to Mass Production

The biggest challenge in integrated photonics isn’t physics—it’s scaling. Traditional “hero experiments” in academic cleanrooms rarely translate to high-yield manufacturing lines. Luxtelligence solves this by design. Our TFLX™ platform was engineered from day one to be foundry-compatible. We offer a seamless roadmap from immediate evaluation to high-volume manufacturing on 150mm and 200mm commercial lines. 

The Scaling Roadmap

Step 1

Immediate Evaluation (Get Chips Now)

  • Goal: Validate the physics without waiting. 
  • The Solution: We stock standard Reference Dies based on our LT-PRO™ platform. These chips feature standardized modulators, resonators, and varying waveguide lengths. 
  • Performance Verification: Confirm our industry-leading metrics in your own lab immediately: 
    • Ultra-Low Loss: Measure < 0.2 dB/cm propagation loss. 
    • Extreme Bandwidth: Verify > 110 GHz electro-optic response. 

Step 2

Industry-Grade MPW (Design Custom)

  • Goal: Low-cost prototyping of your unique circuit. 
  • The Solution: Join our regularly scheduled Multi-Project Wafer (MPW) runs on the LT-PRO™ platform. Unlike R&D runs, these are processed using our strict industrial baseline. 
  • Benefit: Design with the ltoi300 PDK. The performance you prototype here is exactly what you will get in volume production. 

Step 3

Qualification & KGD (Risk Reduction)

  • Goal: Eliminate packaging yield loss and qualify your product. 
  • The Solution: We offer delivery of Known Good Dies (KGD). Instead of buying a bare wafer, you buy 100% tested chips. 
  • Benefit: We perform wafer-level probing for optical insertion loss, DC connectivity, and $V_{\pi}$. You only pay for dies that meet your specification, drastically reducing your packaging costs and risk. 

Step 4

High-Volume Manufacturing (6" & 8" Scale)

  • Goal: Mass deployment. 
  • The Solution: Seamless transfer to dedicated 150mm (6-inch) and 200mm (8-inch) production lines. 
  • Benefit: By leveraging the global semiconductor supply chain (and the maturity of the Lithium Tantalate RF filter industry), we offer capacity scaling from thousands to tens of thousands of wafers per month. 

Why Scale with Luxtelligence?

Unified PDK: The PDK you use in the MPW phase (ltoi300) is the exact same PDK used for volume. No redesigns. No “process offsets.” 

Supply Chain Resilience: Our dual-foundry strategy ensures that your critical optical components are not subject to single points of failure. 

Industrial Rigor: Our volume lines utilize Statistical Process Control (SPC) for critical dimensions and film thickness, ensuring every batch matches the “Golden Wafer.”
