Diamondoid Patent Improves Stability and
Performance of Lightwave's Proprietary Polymer Materials for
Datacenter Applications to Address Increasing Generative AI Demand
Across the Internet
ENGLEWOOD, Colo., April 1,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lightwave Logic, Inc. (NASDAQ:
LWLG), a technology platform company leveraging its proprietary
electro-optic (EO) polymers to transmit data at higher speeds with
less power in a small form factor, today announced the issuance of
patent 11,921,401 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(USPTO) – entitled 'Nonlinear Optical Chromophores Having a
Diamondoid Group Attached Thereto, Methods of Preparing the Same,
and Uses Thereof' issued on March 5,
2024, which has been shown to significantly improve the
overall stability and performance of the company's EO
chromophores.
This materials-based chemical-engineered invention advances the
overall performance of the company's EO chromophores and their use
in high-speed, low power and commercial-grade EO polymer modulators
that operate at 200Gbps with drive voltage levels of 1V. The
proprietary chromophores are designed with Diamondoid molecular
groups that are attached to the chromophore. Results show that when
these chromophores are dispersed in a host polymer matrix, the EO
materials result in improved macroscopic EO properties, increased
poling efficiency, increased loading as well as increased stability
of these materials after poling.
The impact of the technology disclosed is significant in that it
will increase the overall robustness of polymer materials that are
utilized in optical modulator devices. Further, the materials can
be easily utilized in silicon foundries for high-volume
manufacturing processes.
Dr. Michael Lebby, Chief
Executive Officer of Lightwave Logic, commented: "This is an
exciting invention that adds to our already robust material patent
portfolio, which I firmly believe will help us bring in more
commercial license deals for our EO polymers, especially as we work
with high-volume manufacturing silicon foundries and 200mm silicon
wafers. We see this material as a key component for next generation
800Gbps and 1600Gbps pluggable optical transceiver modules
that support the rise of generative AI and upgrading of datacenter
hardware equipment."
