Technology Pillars

Heterogeneous integration platform delivering revolutionary performance through multi-material architecture.

Ultra-low-loss waveguides

Beacon has developed an ultra-low-loss-on-chip waveguide manufacturing process that allows the “Fiber” in a FOG to be directly replaced by its patented SiPhOG™ waveguide integrated circuit (“chip”). This manufacturing process is being developed at a large USA-based commercial semiconductor foundry.

Integrated optical gain

Beacon has developed a patented silicon photonics integrated circuit that replaces the discrete optical components (couplers, modulators, and detector) found in a FOG. The integrated SiPhOG™ provides a massive reduction in component costs and significant reduction in dimensional volume as compared to an equivalent high performance traditional Fiber Optic Gyro implementation.

Electro-optic modulation

Beacon has developed an ultra-low-loss on-chip waveguide manufacturing process that enables the optical fiber used in a Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG) to be directly replaced with its patented SiPhOG™ silicon photonic waveguide integrated circuit (chip). This advanced fabrication process is being developed in partnership with a major U.S.-based commercial semiconductor foundry, supporting scalable, high-performance electro-optic modulation on a compact integrated platform.
