Light doesn’t wait for electrons. Neither do we. 💡At LIGENTEC, we scale ultra-low-loss Silicon Nitride photonics from prototype to volume production on 200mm automotive-qualified wafers, powering quantum, LiDAR, telecom & biosensing. #DayOfPhotonics2026

Happy DAY OF PHOTONICS! Thank you to the companies, university students, researchers and teachers sharing their knowledge through school lectures, demonstrations and conversations.
Are you organising an activity or have you already visited a school? We’d love to hear about it.
New team member alert! 👋 Welcome Sayan Maccarone, our new Characterization Intern! A future HEPIA microengineering student with a passion for precision, from watchmaking to a hand-built electric guitar. Excited to have him on board! 🚀
#Welcome #LIGENTECGrows #JobsInPhotonics
What we're demoing live on Nov 17:
→ IPKISS layout with LIGENTEC PDK
→ Statistical models (new)
→ Integrated DRC
No toy examples. The actual workflow.

The path from prototype to production matters.
LIGENTEC supports MPW → pilot (2,000+) → volume (10,000+) on X-FAB's automotive-qualified 200 mm line, same PDK, process and quality controls throughout.
AN350-10 registration closes on 1 Nov.

📣 @LIGENTECPIC and NLM Photonics teamed up to build the first Silicon Nitride Organic Hybrid modulators on a commercial photonics platform, with proof-of-concept devices for photonic qubit routing and QKD applications. tinyurl.com/4w6r8xc4 #EPICMemberNews #Photonics #Quantum
We're hosting a live webinar with @LucedaPhotonics on Nov 17. Topic: taking photonic designs from circuit to verified layout — faster, with fewer iterations.
Free. 60 min. Live Q&A. → us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi…

Photonics at scale, explained by the people who build it.
LIGENTEC's engineering team will be at Forum EPFL 2026 — talk graduate roles, internships, and thesis projects in Silicon Nitride PIC manufacturing.

Quantum supply chains need an ecosystem, not a single supplier. Giulio Tavani (LIGENTEC) spoke today at the TERATEC quantum seminar in Paris: foundries, wafer makers, and packagers must align early.

From prototype to volume, the same foundry supports the whole path. LIGENTEC's 200 mm automotive-qualified SiN platform, manufactured with X-FAB, covers MPW prototyping, pilot (2,000+) and volume production (10,000+).
🎯 Can you translate customer needs into PIC solutions? LIGENTEC needs a Technical Sales Engineer to own the sales cycle — pre-sales to after-sales. Technical sales/application engineering experience a plus! 👉 ligentec.teamtailor.com/jobs… #PhotonicsJobs #LetsPICIt
