Lixin Optoelectronics Successfully Develops 1940nm High-Power Semiconductor Laser Chip

According to Mems Consulting, Xi'an Lixin Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Lixin Optoelectronics") recently achieved a significant technological breakthrough by successfully developing a high-power semiconductor laser chip with a wavelength of 1940 nm—marking the longest-wavelength commercial product in the indium phosphide material system. This milestone not only fills the domestic technology gap in this specific wavelength range but also breaks the industry's long-standing reliance on imports, paving the way for high-precision, domestically produced light source solutions in fields such as laser-based medical aesthetics, spectral analysis, and biomedical detection.

Against the backdrop of a global AI boom and the accelerated advancement of computing infrastructure, LiXin Optoelectronics has leveraged its core technological expertise in the optoelectronics field to achieve breakthroughs across the entire wavelength range of its indium phosphide product series. This has enabled the company to build a comprehensive product portfolio spanning from 1210 nm to 1940 nm. The product lineup covers an extensive range of wavelengths—from near-infrared to mid-infrared—including key options such as 1210 nm, 1260 nm, 1310 nm, 1470 nm, 1550 nm, 1710 nm, and 1940 nm. Each product has already undergone successful mass production integration and rigorous market testing, sparking a new wave of innovative applications across multiple photonics industry sectors.

In the emerging field of low-altitude economy, LiteCore Photonics has innovatively launched a 1550 nm-band low-altitude ranging radar system that integrates coherent detection with adaptive beamforming technology, achieving centimeter-level ranging accuracy and exceptional anti-interference capabilities. This breakthrough creates a "light-quantum sensing barrier" tailored for applications such as urban low-altitude traffic management and drone-based logistics coordination, driving innovation in intelligent air transportation systems.

Xi'an Lixin Optoelectronic Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 2012 with a registered capital of 197 million yuan. The company has assembled a team of renowned industry experts from both domestic and international fields and has built an advanced compound semiconductor laser chip production line. The company's business spans the entire industrial chain of high-power semiconductor lasers based on gallium arsenide and indium phosphide, covering epitaxial growth, chip fabrication, device packaging, and module assembly—while maintaining full-process autonomy and control. Its products feature a wavelength range from 7XX nm to 19XX nm and deliver output power ranging from milliwatts to kilowatts, making them widely applicable across diverse sectors, including industrial processing, fiber-optic communications, laser display, medical aesthetics, scientific research, and printing illumination. Since its establishment, the company has consistently achieved annual compound growth rates exceeding 50% year after year.
