Benchmark offers photonics packaging and photonics test solutions for cutting-edge applications such as high-speed digital communications, high-performance computing, and laser-based systems. We leverage our expertise in advanced materials, packaging, and microelectronic assembly for the process development and manufacturing of photonics modules.
Benchmark’s photonics expertise is housed in our Microwave & Photonics Center of Excellence in Phoenix, Arizona. In this vertically-integrated facility, we partner with your team to take your product from design specifications into production, developing and implementing manufacturing and test processes for high-reliability products. Whether you are looking to jointly develop your design or need built-to-print services, our experience with novel materials, RF systems, microelectronics process development, optical alignment, and test development make Benchmark the ideal choice for photonics and mixed technology modules and assemblies.
Test and measurement platforms enable both process development and production, including tunable lasers, polarization synthesizers, and optical power meters to measure bit error rate test (BERT), polarization-dependent loss (PDL), and return loss (RL) of passive optical components. These platforms are used across the design, development, and manufacturing workflow to verify the performance of complex light-based communications systems and conduct comprehensive characterizations of optical components and network elements. We leverage these same technologies in our optical integration capabilities.
