Six reusable module families support micromirrors, microlenses, optical benches and wafer-level packaging for integrated optical devices.
Atomica announced the launch of its MEMS Optical Control Platform, giving customers a configurable foundation for developing and manufacturing integrated optical devices.
A new optical device often requires two development efforts: designing the product and establishing how to manufacture it. Atomica reduces the second burden through reusable process modules, allowing customers to concentrate on the geometry, optical features, and materials that determine their device’s performance.
The demands vary by product. An optical switch in AI infrastructure may need to redirect light between data paths, while a LiDAR device scans a scene and an imaging system adjusts focus. What these designs share is a dependence on controlled physical motion or alignment. The platform supports that common need without forcing different products into the same device design.
Customers can draw from six module families: micromirrors, comb-drive actuation, diaphragms and tunable membranes, microlenses, silicon optical benches, and wafer-level packaging. These can be used individually or combined, with custom features added where the application requires them.
Integration is central to the platform. A mirror’s coating can affect its shape, and its package can affect alignment. Atomica evaluates these interactions alongside process compatibility and test requirements, helping resolve issues early and reduce the risk of costly redesigns later.
Atomica supports projects from concept and feasibility through engineering samples, qualification, and production. The platform also complements its AI Optical Connectivity, AI Optical Source, AI Photonic Integration, AI Thermal Microstructures, and Physical AI Sensor platforms, allowing customers to draw on capabilities across these offerings.
Atomica’s MEMS Optical Control Platform positions the company as a microfabrication partner for customers building the optical and sensing components of the future: systems that direct light, move data, perceive the environment, and enable intelligent machines to interact with the world.
