Optoelectronic component manufacturer II‐VI is to power all of its European facilities with 100 per cent renewable electricity sources.
The recent virtual OFC Conference covered some of the industry’s hottest topics. Keely Portway reports from the Market Watch conference talk about the current state of the industry.
II‐VI introduced a range of 100Gb/s indium phosphide (InP) directly modulated lasers (DMLs) for high-speed transceivers deployed in data centres at OFC.
II‐VI Incorporated has extended its WaveShaper programmable optical processor and filter product lines for operation in the optical communications C+L band.
II‐VI has announced the introduction of an optical monitoring system (OMS) for optical transport and access networks.
II-VI Incorporated is to acquire Coherent for approximately $7.01bn.
The ongoing bidding war for Coherent between Lumentum, II-VI, and MKS Instruments continues to develop.
