In the inaugural episode of Season 10, we discuss GlobalFoundries’ Fotonix project and the potential of silicon photonics with Anthony Yu, Vice President of GlobalFoundries’ Computer and Wired Infrastructure Business Unit. Later, we speak with John Jost, co-founder of Enlightra, a Swiss startup creating chip-scale optical frequency combs. Jost speaks to the applications of these miniaturized devices as they relate to telecommunications, and perhaps in the future, scaled-down optical clocks.
The episode begins with on-site interviews from EPIC’s Technology Meeting for Photonics in XR, held in Helsinki, Finland. Guests include Stefan Steiner, CEO of LightTrans International; Erhan Ercan, head of global business development at Morphotonics; and Bharath Rajagopalan, director of strategic marketing at STMicroelectronics. EPIC’s Jérémy Picot-Clémente leads these chats. In our feature interview, news editor Joel Williams speaks with Jason Sorger, senior field service and applications engineer at DRS Daylight Solutions, about market opportunities for durable quantum cascade laser technology in sectors including optical communications, quantum, and infrared spectroscopy.
Optics and photonics luminary Paul McManamon is our guest for a discussion on advanced ranging and detection capabilities across environments and applications areas. McManamon, a past president of SPIE, is current president and CTO of Exciting Technology, and a fellow of the Directed Energy Professional Society. Also in this episode, a discussion with Alasdair Pentland and Andy Bell of terahertz solutions firm TeraView.
Photonics Media comes to you from onsite at the 2024 Annual General Meeting of the European Photonics Industry Consortium (EPIC). The episode features fireside chats with Elizabeth Illy and Beate Sauter, head of marketing at HÜBNER Photonics and CEO of diode laser components manufacturer Lumics, respectively. EPIC’s Carlos Lee hosts. Later, our Joel Williams discusses all things lasers for cinema with the acclaimed and award-winning Gregory Niven.

As an endowed professor at The University of Central Florida College of Optics and Photonics (UCF CREOL), Andrea Blanco-Redondo focuses on some of the most exciting topics in photonics research. While some of her research interests are just beginning to emerge in commercial and consumer applications, others stand very solidly in the realm of R&D, eagerly awaited by industry. Our conversation spans topics in soliton photonics, slow light, and quantum topology. Also, Torsten Vahrenkamp and Matthias Trinker of the management team at ficonTEC, discuss ELAS Technologies Investment — a capital firm spurring high-tech business success at global scale.

Zubin Jacob, Purdue University Elmore Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, discusses the convergence of thermal imaging and artificial intelligence. The recently developed heat-assisted detection and ranging (HADAR) technique offers performance advantages in low-light environments, in which other modalities face drawbacks. Also, we speak with TRAQC’s Mariia Zhuldybina and Benjamin Dringoli. The company recently took first place in the 2024 SPIE Startup Challenge. TRAQC’s solution leverages THz light, offering real-time inspection capabilities for printed and additive electronics.
