Why LightCraft?
Access to
Hardware
Key components from the LightCraft PDKs are accessible via the LightPort, allowing customers to validate and test key components before committing to fabrication.
We Don’t Just Design
- We Build
This hands-on approach gives us unique insights into the complexities of photonic chip product development, which we leverage to support our customers and drive their success.
Highlighting the Potential of Integrated Photonics
We help you identify key opportunities and advantages of incorporating integrated photonics into your existing products, ensuring your technology stays ahead of the game.
Strong Technical Foundation
Our team's expertise in integrated photonics for demanding quantum applications enables us to guide customers effectively, minimise risks, and ensure focused, productive R&D.
Prioritising Rapid Prototyping
At Light Trace Photonics, we are committed to accelerating your product development. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Applied Nanotools (ANT), a Canadian leader in rapid photonic chip fabrication using advanced electron beam technology.
ANT’s optimised processes enable industry professionals and researchers to quickly prototype high-performance devices, significantly shortening the development cycle.
LightCraft’s component PDK for ANT’s platform, combined with ANT’s speedy fabrication, helps you develop and bring innovative products closer to market with minimised risk.
Prototype with ANT and package with PHIX Photonics Assembly…
PHIX Photonics Assembly are world-leading in providing prototype characterisation packaging.
At Light Trace, we’ve developed a set of design templates for ANT’s silicon nitride platform that ensure chips can be packaged using PHIX’s characterisation packaging, helping to remove risk and streamline prototyping.
With expert design support
With more than 15 years of combined expertise in developing advanced integrated photonic circuits & PDKs for high-specification quantum applications, our team is equipped to tackle complex challenges across the design spectrum.
Our experience in deploying photonic chip products means we bring deep knowledge in key areas, including packaging and system-level design, to every project.
