BluGlass receives custom GaN laser order from repeat customer
BluGlass Ltd of Silverwater, Australia — which develops and manufactures gallium nitride (GaN) blue laser diodes based on its proprietary low-temperature, low-hydrogen remote-plasma chemical vapor deposition (RPCVD) technology — has received a custom GaN laser project order from a repeat customer that is a leading USA-based research laboratory.
The order encompasses BluGlass’ multi-mode GaN lasers in custom laser bars for testing in high-power scientific applications. The bars will also feature custom lenses, attracting a higher average selling price (ASP).
“This custom order further validates our unique go-to-market approach, and market differentiation,” believes CEO Jim Haden. “Our flexible form factors and custom manufacturing capability are helping our customers solve complex challenges and enable novel applications in large and growing industry verticals. Our packaging and manufacturing flexibility is also enabling us to establish ourselves as a partner-of-choice, providing a platform for our lasers to be designed into new applications as well as growing our early product revenues,” he adds. “We are very encouraged to receive this order from an existing laser project customer, as we develop our track-record and progress to larger volume and recurring orders.”
