Optoscribe

Venture Round in 2020
Optoscribe’s unique 3D glass-based photonic integrated circuit platform is ideally suited for creating custom transceiver fiber coupling and attaching solutions designed to specifically address the challenges of individual optical transceiver architectures and configurations. Designed to enable compact and robust optical interconnects, Optoscribe’s platform revolutionise the footprint and form factor of assemblies and dramatically increase the amount of data transferred across networks. This in turn minimises network costs whilst maximising cable performance. We use proven and tested manufacturing processes to enable simple volume scalability, and ensure that our products are designed to meet the stringent needs of communications markets. Easy to integrate into a wide range of advanced communications applications the 3D nature of Optoscribe’s platform lends itself to address fiber density issues as speed (bandwidth) moves from 400Gb/s to 800Gb/s and beyond. It also supports advanced space division multiplexed transmission using the latest fibers, more specifically, Single Mode Fibers (SMF), Multimode Fibers (MMF) Multicore Fibers (MCF) and Few Mode Fibers (FMF). The 3D fiber coupling solutions can address challenges in a wide variety of transceivers including Silicon Photonics, VCSEL and DFB based designs and coupling to a range of standard fiber architectures..
