ASIP Secures $2.5 Million Government Contract to Expand Development of Photonic Integration Technology 

 August 23, 2004 - ASIP, Inc., a pioneer in the development of advanced, photonic integrated circuits and a leading provider of high-speed lasers for next-generation optical transceivers, announced that ThreeFive Photonics B.V., its wholly owned subsidiary in the Netherlands, has secured a government contract from SenterNovem, part of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, worth USD $2.5 million.
 
ASIP will partner with the COBRA Research School of the Technical University of Eindhoven, a world-renowned institution in the study of advanced semiconductor nanostructures and photonic technology. ASIP and COBRA will research new technologies, such as quantum dot active regions, high-aspect-ratio photonic band gap structures and advanced integrated device designs, to help eliminate the traditional barriers to achieving large-scale optoelectronic integration. These barriers include high power dissipation, the need for thermoelectric cooling and poor manufacturing yields.
