BeamExpress, a spin-off from BeamExpress Inc, is a privately held company working in cooperation with EPFL (The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) to develop long wavelength VCSELs (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) for high-speed optical communications as well as gas spectrometry. BeamExpress is using a unique proprietary fabricationtechnique – the localized wafer fusion process - developed by the members of the founding team, which provides high performance 1310nm devices up to 10Gb/s but also VCSELs laser sources with high precision wavelengths ranging from 1200nm up to 2000nm for CWDM application and for the gas sensing industry. BeamExpress is a fabless company, outsourcing its production to leading European partners.
