IZMO Limited announced that its semiconductor subsidiary, izmo Microsystems Pvt. Ltd., will showcase a range of production-stage silicon photonics products and advanced packaging technologies at SEMICON India 2026.

Product Showcase Details

The izmo Microsystems exhibit will showcase next-generation silicon photonics packaging, featuring functional products that are currently in production. These include:

  • Quantum Random Number Generator module
  • Quantum Key Distribution module packaged for Pramatra
  • Thin-Film Lithium Niobate modulator packaged for CCRAFT
  • Advanced photonic characterization packages developed and manufactured entirely by izmo Microsystems

Strategic Positioning and Capabilities

The showcase highlights izmo Microsystems' unique position as the first Indian company to undertake the highly specialized packaging required to convert photonic integrated circuits into functional modules - a capability historically restricted to specialized facilities outside of India. The company combines package design, precision assembly, and manufacturing under one roof, supporting customers from initial prototyping through full commercial production.

Future Product Portfolio

At SEMICON India, izmo Microsystems will preview its next-generation optical transceiver portfolio, scheduled for commercial launch in 2027.

Market Context and Applications

Silicon photonics is described as an important enabling technology for AI infrastructure, high-performance computing, quantum technologies, defence, aerospace and secure communications. The technology transmits data using light rather than electrical signals, delivering the bandwidth and energy efficiency required to overcome speed and heat-generation bottlenecks in modern advanced computing.

The global optical transceiver market is projected by Research and Markets to exceed US$30 billion by 2030. Demand is being accelerated by the expansion of AI clusters and cloud infrastructure investments in India from hyperscalers like AWS, Microsoft, and Google, creating a requirement for high-speed, energy-efficient optical connectivity.

Strategic Partnerships

This commercial development program is bolstered by izmo Microsystems' strategic partnership with the IIT Madras-led CPPICS Photonics Mission, supporting the translation of indigenous photonics research into commercially manufacturable products.

Management Commentary

Dinanath Soni, Director of izmo Microsystems Pvt. Ltd., stated: "SEMICON India gives us an opportunity to showcase silicon photonics products that are manufactured by us and demonstrate the advanced packaging expertise we have built in India. Our strength lies in advanced package design and manufacturing, taking customers from initial development through to production. As the first Indian company to undertake silicon photonics packaging, we are helping establish a domestic capability with applications across AI, high-performance computing, quantum technologies, defence and secure communications. This progress reflects the work of our engineering teams and our collaboration with IIT Madras through CPPICS. Our forthcoming optical transceiver portfolio will build on this expertise to address growing demand in India and international markets."

Event Objectives

Through its participation at SEMICON India 2026, izmo Microsystems aims to cement India's emerging capabilities in advanced packaging and strengthen its engagement with customers, research institutions, and strategic partners.
