Collaboration combines SilOriX\u2019s advanced silicon-organic hybrid modulators with NLM\u2019s Selerion™-HTX electro-optic materials<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

SEATTLE \u2014 September 21, 2026 \u2014<\/strong> NLM Photonics<\/a> and SilOriX<\/a>, both leaders in silicon organic hybrid (SOH) photonic solutions, today announced that they have entered into a Joint Development Agreement to advance next-generation photonic integrated circuits (PICs) for high-speed, energy-efficient optical communications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SilOriX is a spin-out from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), where foundational SOH research included collaboration with the University of Washington and NLM. The partnership builds on those research connections and SilOriX\u2019s experience working with NLM\u2019s materials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSilOriX brings expertise in SOH device design as well as firsthand experience with our materials,\u201d said Brad Booth, CEO of NLM Photonics. \u201cThis agreement creates a foundation for us to work together on expanding the incorporation of Selerion-HTX in high-speed, energy-efficient optical communications. We\u2019re happy to add SilOriX to the growing ecosystem of companies implementing and building upon NLM’s SOH technology, including foundries, PIC design houses, material providers, etc.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith our advanced slot-modulator designs and processes, we have demonstrated record-breaking data-rates and proven the SOH technology to be fast, efficient and scalable,\u201d said Adrian Mertens, CEO of SilOriX. \u201cNLM has done an incredible job of demonstrating outstanding material performance and stability, and we look forward to building on our complementary expertise.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
