nanovate! #9 is here – Happy Reading!

The latest issue of AMO’s biannual magazine has just been released! This end-of-year edition is dedicated to the Digital Hardware Hub Aachen—a major initiative launched this summer that will shape AMO’s future for the next decades. Inside, we also dive into the newly started NEPOMUQ project, which focuses on exploring novel perovskites with nonlinear optical […]

NEPOMUQ: Development of integrated optoelectronic modulators based on nonlinear optical perovskites

AMO GmbH and the University of Wuppertal have launched the research project NEPOMUQ (New Perovskite Materials for Integrated Optoelectronic Modulators in Quantum Systems). Over the next three years, novel perovskite materials with strong nonlinear optical properties will be investigated. The aim is to realize integrated optoelectronic modulators that serve as key components for a variety […]

Sputtered aluminum nitride waveguides achieve record low propagation loss in telecom spectrum

A collaboration between AMO GmbH and Fraunhofer IAF demonstrates the potential of sputtered aluminum nitride for photonic applications in the telecom spectrum. Aluminum nitride (AlN) is emerging as an outstanding material for photonic waveguide applications. The best results to date have been achieved with AlN grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), while sputtered […]
