AMO’s mission as a research oriented company is to efficiently close the gap between university research and industrial application. For this purpose AMO identifies those topics from basic research that seem particularly suitable for industrial implementation and demonstrates these in application-oriented technology. In joint projects and bilateral cooperation, research and development results are transferred to industry for maintenance and creation of jobs.

This presentation provides an overview of recent advances in electro-optical devices and system architectures for data communications, telecommunication transceivers, and 3D sensing applications. On the transmitter side, progress in directly modulated lasers and externally modulated lasers will be reviewed. The directly modulated lasers include gallium arsenide (GaAs) vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and Indium phosphide (InP) distributed feedback lasers (DFBs).

Remarkable progress has been made in the development of hardware for quantum technologies. As a platform for quantum technologies, integrated photonics has enabled significant leaps for integrating many components, including programmable circuitry, photon sources and detectors. However, machines such as fault tolerant quantum computers appear to be a long way off for all platforms, including photonics.
