Photonic integrated circuits
Photonic integrated circuits can be produced with various materials, also called material platforms. Silicon nitride is one of those material platforms, next to, for example, Silicon Photonics and Indium Phosphide. Silicon Nitride photonic integrated circuits have a broad spectral coverage and features low light losses. This makes them highly suited to detectors, spectrometers, biosensors, and quantum computers. The lowest propagation losses reported in SiN (0.1 dB/cm down to 0.1 dB/m) have been achieved by LioniX International’s TriPleX waveguides.

High Stress Membranes
Silicon nitride has emerged as a favorable platform for high-stress thin film membrane devices. These devices have been used as sensing devices in a wide variety of a scientific experiments including spectroscopy applications and dark matter searches.
