POET Technologies Inc.POET
Information Technology

Designs optical engines and light-source products based on the Optical Interposer, a chip-scale photonic packaging platform for AI and data-center optical links. It operates as a single semiconductor-products-and-services segment, with activity across Asia, the United States, and Canada.

Designs optical engines and light-source products around its Optical Interposer, a wafer-level packaging platform that brings electronic and photonic devices together. The products are aimed at AI and data-center optical links, including makers of pluggable optical-transceiver modules.

Turns that platform into semiconductor products and services through a single operating segment. Its operating footprint spans Asia, the United States, and Canada; Super Photonics Xiamen became wholly owned after the company acquired the remaining interest.

Uses chip-scale photonic packaging for newer data-center architectures. Commercial activity includes product sales and non-recurring engineering services, while sales are oriented toward optical engines and light-source products.
