Luxtera specializes in Silicon CMOS Photonics. It is the first company to overcome the complex technical obstacles involved with integrating high-performance optics directly with silicon electronics on a mainstream CMOS chip, bringing direct “fiber to the chip” connectivity to the market. Luxtera’s patented technology blends the long reach capabilities of single-mode fiber with the low cost of highly integrated optoelectronics to deliver compelling transceiver devices that have advanced the state of the high-speed optical communications industry. Headquartered in Carlsbad, California, Luxtera is a fabless semiconductor company that was founded in 2001 by a team of industry-renowned researchers and technology managers drawn from the communications and semiconductor industries. Luxtera has received funding from leading venture capitalists including August Capital, New Enterprise Associates, Sevin Rosen Funds, and Lux Capital. In December 2018, Luxtera was acquired by Cisco.
