COMPANY

Your reliable partner for PIC prototyping

SiPhotonIC was launched in 2018 based to spin-out the silicon photonics technology developed by the Department of Photonics Engineering (prev. DTU Fotonik, now DTU Electro) in Technical University of Denmark.

The company was founded by the senior researcher Dr. Yunhong Ding, to cover the needs for rapid prototyping of affordable and fully-customized silicon photonic integrated circuits (PICs).

The company is using DTU Danchip National Center for Micro- and Nanofabrication (DTU Danchip/Nanolab) which covers 1350 m2 facilities within the DTU campus and is equipped with the state-of-the-art class 10-100 ISO-9001 certified cleanroom for a plethora of processes for photonic integration.

The company has a strong track record in manufacturing high-performance & complex silicon PICs both for classical and quantum photonic applications with many of them published in world-class journals i.e. Science, Nature Communications, Nano Letters, Nanoscale, Scientific Reports etc.

The SiPhotonIC team comprises highly-skilled members that can always facilitate you to bring your idea from sketch to a PIC prototype.
