Problem
Many high‑precision photonic applications—such as advanced optical communications, sensing, and metrology—require lasers and frequency comb sources with ultra‑low noise, narrow linewidth, and fast, high‑depth frequency modulation. Conventional bulk‑optic solutions are large, power‑hungry, and lack the integration needed for scalable, cost‑effective deployment.
Solution
Deeplight provides photonic‑integrated circuit (PIC) based laser and microcomb products that combine ultra‑narrow linewidth, ultra‑low noise, and agile frequency control in a compact, chip‑scale form factor. By leveraging low‑loss silicon nitride waveguides with monolithic piezoelectric actuation, their ultra‑narrow‑linewidth lasers deliver high‑fidelity frequency modulation. Thin‑film lithium niobate (TFLN) integration enables high‑speed, low‑voltage frequency tuning for rapid modulation. Their Kerr frequency comb generators and turn‑key microcomb systems produce stable single‑soliton combs suitable for demanding communication and metrology tasks, all housed in a rack‑mountable package. Additionally, Deeplight offers copper‑free silicon wafers that serve as thermally stable substrates for low‑loss Si₃N₄ and hybrid photonic circuits, ensuring repeatable high‑performance waveguides at wafer scale.
Target Audience
Primary customers are OEMs and system integrators in optical communications, precision metrology, and advanced sensing who require compact, low‑noise, frequency‑agile laser and comb sources, as well as research institutions developing photonic technologies.
