Sivers Photonics is the world¡¯s most advanced supplier of customized III-V semiconductor photonics devices, enabling next-generation applications in fast-growth optical communications, sensing, and quantum markets. Sivers is a key strategic supplier to many Fortune 100 and Silicon Valley customers.

With over 20 years of expertise, the foundry provides end-to-end design, manufacturing and qualification for early-phase prototypes and high-volume production. Sivers supports up to 100mm wafer sizes on InP, GaAs, GaSb, and GaN substrates for a broad range of photonic devices including FP & DFB Lasers, SOAs, RSOAs and Detectors. 

Sivers¡¯ advanced 100mm indium phosphide custom product platform (InP100), a design and manufacturing framework for InP photonics devices, uses established and reliable process modules to produce a broad range of device types. InP100 has a fully customisable mechanical interface for hybrid integration on Silicon Photonics.

Sivers and Synopsys are collaborating to embed Sivers¡¯ laser and gain chip models into the Synopsys OptoCompiler design automation platform by adding simulation models for OptSim. This collaboration will enable end users to reduce design cycle times and improve hybrid PIC performance.
