Quantum Dot lasers have significant performance advantages over more traditional quantum well lasers used broadly in the industry. QD lasers can operate at higher temperatures, are more efficient in reducing power consumption of the module, and are immune to optical reflection which reduces module complexity and cost. Genuine Optics’ new 1.6T modules take advantage of these features to enhance customers’ goals of lower power use and reduced cost in data center optics.
“This partnership is a milestone in delivering the efficient optics required for next-generation AI hardware,” said Genuine Optics CEO Madhav Bhatta. “We are thrilled to combine our expertise with Innolume to bring this powerful solution to the market,” said Alexey Kovsh, CEO of Innolume.
The partnership will focus on serving leading cloud service providers, data center operators, and network equipment manufacturers globally, offering a module with a distinct competitive advantage in performance and power efficiency.
