Lightwave Logic, Inc.

Lightwave Logic, Inc. is a specialty materials and intellectual property company that develops and commercializes proprietary electro-optic ("EO") polymer materials. These materials are designed to enable high-speed optical modulators for data communications and other photonic applications. The company's Perkinamine® family of EO polymer materials is engineered for integration into silicon photonics ("SiPh") and other photonic integrated circuit ("PIC") platforms. When used in device architectures, these materials are designed to support high-speed, high-bandwidth optical modulation with lower drive voltage requirements compared to certain conventional silicon-based approaches and other traditional photonic material systems, including III-V-based compound semiconductor technologies. The electro-optic properties of these materials allow for shorter interaction lengths in modulator designs, which can lead to more compact device footprints and increased integration density. Additionally, the materials are intended to be compatible with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor ("CMOS") fabrication processes. Reduced drive voltage operation may enable lower system-level power consumption and simplified driver electronics in specific implementations. Lightwave Logic does not manufacture optical transceivers, photonic devices, or complete optical modules. Instead, its strategy is to commercialize its technology through material sales, intellectual property licensing, process design kit ("PDK") enablement, and royalty or other fee-based arrangements tied to customer production. Its customers and prospective customers include semiconductor foundries, silicon photonics device designers, optical module manufacturers, and system integrators serving artificial intelligence ("AI"), cloud computing, data center, and telecommunications markets. As of January 2026, multiple customer programs are progressing through defined development stages.
