LIGENTEC is a European business-to-business manufacturer of Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs), providing companies and research teams with access to advanced photonics technologies. Its chips support applications in computing, connectivity and sensing, including artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, datacom, telecom, space, LiDAR, metrology and biosensing.

The company offers a mature, modular platform for low-loss integrated photonics based on silicon nitride (SiN), alongside heterogeneous integration with thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) and III-V materials. Manufacturing is available through dedicated production runs, Multi-Project Wafer (MPW) runs and customer-specific development. LIGENTEC supports customers from prototype through volume production, with manufacturing at a 200 mm CMOS facility and an emphasis on high-quality standards.

Its services cover the broader development process, including feasibility studies, design and layout support, and custom or high-throughput testing. By combining chip fabrication with engineering assistance and accessible technologies, LIGENTEC helps customers develop and bring integrated photonics solutions to market across high-tech industries.
