What do stable laser facets really mean for manufacturing? Following ISLC 2026, we’re delighted to continue the discussion at the upcoming EPIC Online Technology Meeting on semiconductor laser production. We’ll explore how extended facet stability enabled by the Kontrox™ LASE 16 system supports optimized mirror coating at full capacity — enabling more flexible, decoupled manufacturing flows. 📅 Join the discussion with our CEO Vicente Calvo Alonso, on 29 June: https://lnkd.in/eNj5tUNR EPIC - EUROPEAN PHOTONICS INDUSTRY CONSORTIUM #Passivation #LaserFacets #MirrorCoating #Photonics #SemiconductorLasers #LaserManufacturing #AdvancedManufacturing #TurnkeySolution #Efficiency

As discussions on laser reliability and performance continue here at #ISLC2026, we’re proud to share that our CTO, Jouko Lång, has co‑authored a paper recently published in the esteemed journal Applied Physics Reviews. The paper, written in collaboration with leading laser researchers, Prof. Juan Jiménez and Dr. Jens W. Tomm, explores catastrophic optical damage (COD) in edge-emitting diode lasers — a key challenge in high-power operation and long-term stability. A strong reminder of how fundamental surface and interface physics shapes real-world laser performance. 📄 Read the publication: https://lnkd.in/dXkq6Q_a #CatastrophicOpticalDamage #COD #Photonics #SemiconductorLasers #LaserPhysics #GaN #GaAs #InP #Passivation #LaserManufacturing #ISLC2026

Facet stability no longer has to be a countdown.⏱️ What if it becomes a 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐞? As the industry prepares to meet at #ISLC2026, it’s a great moment to rethink one of the most overlooked constraints in edge‑emitting laser production. The animation below shows a key shift: ➡️ By extending 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬, the pressure to run cleaving, passivation, and mirror coating back‑to‑back disappears. 🔍 In practice: Kontrox™ LASE 16 extends facet stability, giving manufacturers the flexibility to 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐮𝐧 𝐦𝐢𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐭 𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲—without rigid process sequencing. This removes the need to rush wafers between steps and allows each stage to operate under optimal conditions, 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐩𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝. In our latest feature with Laser Focus World, we explore how current approaches create hidden bottlenecks—and how 𝐜𝐫𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 without MBE or in situ coatings. 🚀 The impact: Facet stability becomes a strategic lever for throughput, yield, and scalable production. 📍 Heading to ISLC?

🔎What if you could observe GaN interface quality improving in real time? As the industry moves beyond traditional Moore’s Law scaling, we’re reminded of one of the biggest challenges in pushing high‑power technologies forward: 🔹 not transistor density 🔹 but 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 in wide‑bandgap semiconductors. What you see in this accelerated RHEED sequence is the AlGaN surface evolving from contaminated and diffuse… to bright, sharp, and well‑ordered — 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀.   𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀: ✨ A cleaner GaN/AlGaN interface enables: • lower interface trap density • higher electron mobility • improved channel reliability • higher power efficiency and stability   As performance gains no longer come from shrinking transistors, 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘄 “𝗹𝗮𝘄” driving progress in power electronics.
