Materials research breakthrough : In February, we announced that the chemistry team had successfully engineered a new electro-optic polymer with higher efficiency. I am personally very excited about this achievement because it achieves a number of goals. Firstly, the improved material characteristic supports both lower voltage and higher speed in future devices. You may recall that our annual goals for 2018 – 2019 included “Evaluate polymer platform for lower voltage drive at 50Gbps” and “Continue to drive EO coefficient higher (for lower Voltage drive)” and “Continue to file additional patents on polymer photonics PIC platform.” Creating this new polymer material supports these three goals. Second,
it demonstrates that terrific as electro-optic polymers are already, they have even more untapped upside potential . Third, but certainly not last, it demonstrates that our stellar team continues to generate valuable intellectual property even as we work on commercialization.
As I’ve indicated in public presentations and videos, I feel strongly that there is a growing lack of commercially oriented R&D in materials and hardware. By being one of the few companies focusing on unique electro-optic polymers, Lightwave Logic puts itself in an unusual and enviable position. These observations are being echoed with industry photonics roadmaps that now include polymers as a key enabling technology platform.

Lightwave Logic's Plastics Defy Stereotypes and Save Power
ENGLEWOOD, CO, Feb. 28, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

The 5000 hours R/T may be successfully completed, or close to completion by the ECOC 2019 Sept 22-26, anxious to see the tons of data being incorporated into the Presentation and Workshop, this will be investors first look at results that Tier 1's already know, remember Dr Lebby has been super excited about LWLG's future at the PIC in March, and again at the Investor Summit in April, and again at the ASM in May, and again at the WTMF in June, and Dr Liu has confirmed the timeline is intact in late August, so I fully expect tremendous news coming very soon!
