GigOptix Wins DARPA Research Contract Extension

GigOptix has won an extension of their contract with DARPA MTO and with SPAWAR PACIFIC as the contracting agency. The additional work requested is to fabricate low driving voltage, broadband Mach-Zehnder (MZ) modulators using GigOptix's Electro-Optic (EO) polymer material for operation at very low temperatures for applications in supercomputers. The extension of $346,000 brings the total value of the contract to approx $6.1M and opens new areas for use of the modulators.
