Solinide has launched LumiCOMB as a commercial optical comb source. The 2U instrument provides coherent O-band or C-band wavelength lines for photonics development.
Emitech has developed medical EMC tests extending beyond six gigahertz. The method covers emerging wireless frequencies where standardised radiated-immunity testing currently stops.
EV Group is expanding process support for co-packaged optics manufacturing. Its bonding, nanoimprint, and thin-wafer technologies target scalable photonic-electronic integration.
Twenty-five governments are coordinating policy around secure next-generation 6G networks. The initiative puts interoperability, resilient supply chains, trusted AI, spectrum, and industry-led standards at the centre of international 6G development.
TSMC expects silicon photonics to exceed half the transceiver market. AI networking demand is shifting the engineering challenge from proving optical integration towards lasers, fibres, connectors, testing, and repeatable volume manufacturing.
MetaX has moved its C600 accelerator into commercial mass production. Rising GPU shipments lifted first-half revenue 44.67%, while the 1,000W OAM 2.0 module adds high-bandwidth memory, ECC, and MetaXLink scaling for systems of up to 128 GPUs.
EugenLight has launched high-power external lasers for emerging CPO systems. The ELSFP modules combine low-loss connectors, polarisation-maintaining fibre, hot-pluggability, and a production roadmap targeting volume manufacture during early 2027.
FSP has introduced dual-voltage 3.2kW CRPS modules for AI systems. Separate 12V and 54V versions combine Titanium efficiency, PMBus telemetry, redundant operation, and short-duration peak-power capability for increasingly dense accelerator hardware.
IBM has completed its acquisition of quantum specialist HRL Laboratories. The deal adds silicon spin qubits, cryogenic control electronics, semiconductor processing, packaging, and interconnect expertise alongside IBM’s established superconducting quantum programme.
