On December 11, Zhuhai Qixin Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Qixin Optoelectronics”) was unveiled in Hengqin New District, Zhuhai. The company took the “High-Performance Photonic Integrated Chip and Device Industrialization Project” in 2018 to participate in the first Hengqin Technology Entrepreneurship Competition, and finally won the second place. After a series of preparations such as site selection, registration, decoration, and recruitment after the contest, Qixin Optoelectronics officially settled in Hengqin, Zhuhai, and will be positioned for high-speed optical device development and pilot testing in 5G and data centers.
Ribbon-cutting ceremony
As a pioneer in the field of photon integration in China, Qixin Optoelectronics is a technologically innovative hard technology company integrating new materials, chip design and preparation, packaging and testing, and optical module development and manufacturing. The company was founded by an overseas high-end talent entrepreneurial team, bringing together top talents in the field of optical communications and photonic integration at home and abroad. The team founder, Dr. Cheng Dong, is the director and researcher of the Center for Information Photonic Devices and Photonic Integration of the Xi’an Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, a member of the American Optical Society, and a member of the Fiber Optics and Integrated Optics Committee of the Chinese Optical Society.

Dr. Cheng Dong, the founder of the team, said that Qixin Optoelectronics products are mainly used in 5G high-speed communications, fiber-to-the-home, data centers, and big data industry optical transmission systems, providing high reliability and cost-effective products for leading customers in the industry. And the world’s leading optical transmission solutions can effectively reduce equipment costs and operation and maintenance costs. Zhuhai puts position into R & D and pilot projects of high-speed optical devices for 5G and data centers.
According to Dr. Cheng Dong, photon integration technology is the core technology that breaks through the two technical bottlenecks of speed and energy consumption faced by the next-generation information network. It is the forefront of high-end optical communication and has been widely used. It is also a technology that meets the future. The best solution for network bandwidth needs. Qixin Optoelectronics core team has mastered the world’s only photon integration core technology with high refractive index difference, ultra-low loss, tiny size, and multi-layer circuit. It combines the advantages of two material platforms of Si and SiO2 to initially build photon integration PDK and EDA. So it can greatly increase the scale of photon integration by 40 times.
“The direction of the photonic integrated industry is highly in line with major strategic development strategies such as the country’s “Broadband China “,” Network Power “,” Digital China “, and” Smart Society “, and also in line with the” Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao Greater Bay Area Development Plan Outline”. A generation of information technology and the formation of strategic emerging industrial clusters with international competitiveness.
Li Weihui, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Hengqin New District, said that with the rapid development of 5G, fiber-to-the-home, big data, artificial intelligence, and Internet of Things industries, Qixin Optoelectronics’ photon integration industry lied in Hengqin, Zhuhai will participate in the “Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macao”. “The construction of a science and technology innovation corridor will attract more high-end talents and jointly build an innovative research and development platform, which will add innovation to the development of Zhuhai Hengqin. At the same time, the establishment of Qixin Optoelectronics will also add new innovative power to the strategic development of the optoelectronic information industry in the Pearl River Delta region.
