Solinide launches LumiCOMB
LumiCOMB uses a silicon nitride photonic platform to provide a compact multi-wavelength source for optical systems and AI data centres.
Solinide Photonics is demonstrating its new LumiCOMB optical frequency comb generator at ECOC 2026 in Málaga, Spain.
The turnkey system uses Solinide’s low-loss silicon nitride photonic platform to generate a broadband, phase-coherent optical frequency comb from a single source. The company is targeting RF laboratories, photonics researchers and developers, as well as applications in AI data centres, telecommunications and semiconductor development.
LumiCOMB is available as a 2U, 19-inch rack-mounted system in O-band and C-band configurations. It is designed to replace multiple lasers with a single multi-wavelength source.
According to Solinide, the system can deliver up to 24 usable lines above -5 dBm in the O-band, with 200 GHz line spacing. The comb is delivered through a single polarisation-maintaining fibre with an FC/APC termination.
The technology is based on Solinide’s silicon nitride microresonator platform. The company said its frequency-comb technology achieved a record efficiency in work presented at OFC 2026 with partners including an AI infrastructure vendor.
Solinide, founded in 2021 as a spin-off from Chalmers University of Technology, is demonstrating LumiCOMB at booth 2089 during ECOC 2026.
