About

EFFECT Photonics started as a spin-off from Eindhoven University of Technology with a single ambition: put an entire optical system on one chip. From its headquarters on High Tech Campus Eindhoven, it designs and manufactures monolithic indium phosphide laser assemblies for coherent telecom and data center networks. The company is a production-ready supplier of laser sub-assemblies, including the pico ITLA, and operates as an independent scale-up with a hands-on engineering culture. It developed its own Process Development Kit for in-house InP photonic integrated circuits and qualifies products to Telcordia and MSA standards.
