San Diego, California, USA - Sivers Semiconductors AB subsidiary, Sivers Photonics, to exhibit and show live demo of its CW-WDM MSA compliant DFB laser arrays at Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exhibition (OFC), taking place at the San Diego Convention Center, San Diego, California, USA, from 5 – 9 March.
You can find Sivers Photonics at booth #5400, from 7-9 March. The team from Sivers look forward to showcasing their range of custom III-V photonic devices, with a focus on their CW-WDM MSA compliant 8-wavelength O-Band CW DFB laser array. This laser technology is enabling integrated photonics to support the growing demand for improved internet services at lower power consumption, and reduced costs.
Following a successful demo at ECOC 2022, Sivers Photonics will once again partner with Ayar Labs, demonstrating Sivers Photonics 8-wavelength DFB laser array integrated into the Ayar Labs SuperNova™ multi-wavelength optical source. This technology is driving advanced ultra-high- speed optical interconnects for use in next-generation applications, including CPO, HPC and AI. The demonstration will be located at the Sivers Photonics booth #5400 during the exhibition. Ayar Labs will be located at booth #6008.
“We are excited to showcase the live demo of our DFB laser arrays with Ayar Labs, to the OFC audience. This ongoing partnership is crucial for driving leading edge, ultra-high speed optical interconnect solutions for next generation applications.”, said Billy McLaughlin, Sivers Photonics Managing Director.
“The first quarter of the year includes MWC and OFC, the two main annual events for our business units. Demonstrating our 8-wavelength DFB laser arrays at OFC allows us to showcase how far we have come with our DFB technology. Our Indium phosphide (InP) lasers are showing world-class performance, underpinned by our great partner Ayar Labs using our DFBs to show their one-of-a- kind solution with their SuperNova™ light source in combination with the TeraPHY™ optical I/O chiplet.”, said Anders Storm, Sivers Semiconductors Group CEO.
Sivers will also showcase the ongoing work with their partners, imec and ASMPT, on high- precision III-V laser flip-chip assembly for Silicon Photonics. Flip-chip bonded DFB lasers/RSOAs from Sivers’ InP100 product platform, with precision bonding from partner ASMPT, allow imec to extend the capability of its silicon photonics platform ‘iSiPP’ with validated interfaces for hybrid laser integration, accelerating the adoption of silicon photonics at scale. You will find imec at booth #5205.
OFC is the leading international event for the latest advances in optical communications and networking. From research to marketplace, from components to systems and networks, OFC features the industry’s most innovative companies showcasing optical innovations, products, technology, and research enabling communications networks globally.

CW-WDM MSA The CW-WDM MSA (Continuous-Wave Wavelength Division Multiplexing Multi-Source Agreement) was formed to standardize WDM CW sources in O-band for emerging advanced integrated optics applications that are expected to move to 8, 16, and 32 wavelengths. Such higher wavelength counts are needed for emerging applications such as AI, HPC, and high-density optics, and enable a leap in performance, efficiency, cost, and bandwidth scaling compared with other technologies.
