EPIC Outreach Video Fraunhofer HHI September 2022
Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute, a member of EPIC (European Photonics Industry Consortium), does research on communications since more than 90 years. Nowadays, about every second bit transported in the internet touches HHI InP technology on its way to the receiver. With a strong focus on InP, we also develop polymer waveguide based hybrid integration and SiNx photonics. While our expertise is strongest in high performance (100 GBit/sec and above) data- and telecom, we have strongly increasing activities in communication and sensor systems, e.g. based on Terahertz and LiFi technology. We regularly offer multi-project wafers in InP. Our partners have the choice to do the design themselves and just use us as a foundry or to get both design and chips from a single source. http://www.hhi.fraunhofer.de/
