- Lightwave Logic ( NASDAQ: LWLG ) said it received a U.S. patent for an advanced chemical structural design and process which boosts the efficiency of poling non-linear organic optical chromophores while improving thermal stability and electro-optic efficiency (r33).
- The international patent titled 'Nonlinear Optical Materials Containing High Boiling Point Solvents, and Methods of Efficiently Poling The Same,' is a World Intellectual Property Patent (WIPO) — PCT Patent No. WO 2023/102066 — illustrates novel organic chemical structural designs which provides increased poling efficiency, and thermal stability for electro-optic materials.
- The designs provide non-linear optical chromophores with improved material properties and stability for processing and fabrication by commercial foundries.
- The company noted that specifically, the patent teaches material processing and poling methods which directly leads to significantly enhanced electro-optic efficiency (r33) verus previous poling techniques.
- "I am excited to announce the issuance of this exciting new world PCT patent that addresses poling, poling efficiency, and stability of our commercial grade electro-optic materials for foundry based modulator fabrication," said Lightwave's Chairman and CEO Michael Lebby.
