Significant milestone: MicroAlign’s microactuator can now handle 16 fibers at 250μm pitch
Significant Milestone: MicroAlign’s microactuator can now handle 16 fibers at 250μm pitch.As of July 2024, MicroAlign has achieved a 2X downscaling of our alignment technology! Our microactuator now handles up to 16 fibers at a 250 μm pitch. With MicroAlign’s technology, each fiber’s position can be precisely controlled in 2D over several micrometers and with […]
New R&D and assembly lab
It’s done! We have completed our new R&D and assembly lab! Our lab is ready for the next phase of developing quantum-grade optical fiber arrays. This expansion marks a significant step forward as we put our grand plans into action. Thanks to our dedicated team, we finished ahead of schedule. A new location means new […]
Technology update: Real-world fiber alignment breakthrough
Technology update. A few weeks ago, we demonstrated how our alignment algorithm performs on simulation. Now we have applied it to our micro actuator to perform a real case fiber-to-fiber alignment. The progression of dots in the video shows the transmitted power during the active alignment routine for one fiber. The experiment is repeated four […]
