Intel Pushes Silicon Modulator
Intel Corp. (Nasdaq: INTC - message board) is continuing its silicon photonics push with the announcement today of a 30-Gbit/s modulator in silicon. Thirty is such an awkward number in telecom. Intel assures the world it expects to push to 40 Gbit/s (OC768) soon -- the device does have the headroom for that -- and the goal is to produce a version that does 100 Gbit/s, says Mario Paniccia, director of Intel's photonics technology lab. .

Light Blue Optics
Light Blue Optics Limited has developed ground-breaking laser projection technology, which will power a new generation of pocket-sized digital video projectors. Digital video projectors that produce large, high quality images are becoming increasingly popular, but there are limitations in the technology that make miniaturisation very difficult, preventing projectors from making inroads into the potentially lucrative mobile device markets. Laser projection using computer-generated holograms (CGHs) represents a compelling alternative to conventional image projection. Video projectors based on this CGH technology are efficient and require only a very few components, which means they can be made very small - and the smaller the CGH, the bigger the image that results. So a tiny projector producing large images could, for the first time, be integrated into a laptop, a PDA, or even a mobile phone.

Ahling Joins Meadowlark Optics
FREDERICK, Colo., Jan. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Meadowlark Optics today announced the addition of Jay Ahling to its engineering development group. Ahling has a BS degree from the University of Wisconsin and brings years of liquid crystal device (LCD) design, development, and process optimization to Meadowlark. Prior to joining Meadowlark Optics, Jay worked with Planar-Standish and Syntax-Brillian on liquid crystal on silicon microdisplay technologies. Mr. Ahling's experience includes LCD product and process development, material selection, and device qualification. "We are thrilled to have Jay on board," says Garry Gorsuch, President and CEO at Meadowlark. "His personality and technical background are a perfect fit for us at Meadowlark Optics. In fact, Jay is already making real contributions in new products, working on next generation liquid crystal devices." As Senior Manufacturing Engineer, Ahling will continue his work on liquid crystal device manufacturing improvements, metrology, and qualification at Meadowlark.
