Manufacturing line for photonic chips at High Tech Campus, Eindhoven
This new factory will enable the industrial-scale production of Indium Phosphide (InP) based photonic chips
The construction by TNO will start end this year and is a collaborating with the Photonic Integration Technology Centre (PITC), Eindhoven University of Technology, and the University of Twente.
‘This 6 pilot’ line is a game-changer for Dutch companies and the future earning power and prosperity for the Netherlands. It is a critical part of a powerful ecosystem in photonic chips with which the Netherlands can distinguish itself worldwide.’
From the TNO website:
“The new pilot line connects knowledge institutions and companies and will have a central place in the growing Dutch integrated photonics ecosystem. The factory in Eindhoven will also become part of the European initiative PIXEurope, a collaboration of knowledge institutions in 11 European countries. This project aims to create a European network of pilot manufacturing lines, focused on strengthening the entire value chain for integrated photonics in Europe.”
