Opel Inc.
Overview

ODIS OverviewODIS Inc., with its R&D facilities located on the campus of the University of Connecticut, has developed and proven a new Optoelectronics semiconductor process called POET (Planar OptoElectronic Technology), which is uniquely capable of producing monolithic IC solutions to meet the emerging needs of both the Military and Commercial markets which requires the need for high volume, rapidly growing optoelectronics, wireless and sensors which demand greater bandwidth, increase processing power and integration, with lower power dissipation while being cost effective.

POET Technology

ODIS TechnologyODIS's new and patented semiconductor fabrication process, POET is based on a unique Group III-V materials structure. The heart of POET is a unique and patented Group III-V materials system that supports monolithic fabrication of ICs containing active and passive optical elements, together with high-performance analog and digital elements. For the first time an economical integration of many optical devices together with dense, high-speed analog and high-speed, low-power digital elements are possible in monolithic ICs.

POET allows ODIS to fundamentally alter the landscape for a broad range of applications by offering components with dramatically lowered cost together with increased speed, density, and reliability.

Addressable Markets  
Military

Military MarketsPOET's technology platform for optoelectronic integration exploits the optoelectronic and electronic behaviors of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) semiconductor material. One of the benefits of this material, from a space electronics perspective, is that GaAs is significantly less susceptible to x-ray and gamma-ray total integrated dose (TID) radiation. GaAs is the long-standing choice for high-frequency (e.g. RF) devices and circuits. Important to the military is ODIS's ability to integrate digital, RF, and optical technologies in a single device makes POET an important, high-performance capability that satisfies documented needs for multiple space systems and all Military Departments and Agency Tech Areas.

Commercial

Commercial MarketsProgress in the commercial electronics industry over the past four decades has both driven and been driven by industry's ability to create and serve markets with faster, cheaper, and smaller monolithic integrated circuits. Each product advance in turn becomes the driver for the next wave of IC technology. Today however, this paradigm is falling short. Particularly in the arenas of optoelectronics and very high-speed mixed-signal circuits silicon ICs will not serve, and no good monolithic technology exists. POET is perfectly positioned to address this technology void thus advancing product offerings in PCs, communications and many consumer devices which have been historically powered by technology breakthroughs such as POET.

Silicon is Dead -- Long Live GaAs
January 24th, 2012

We know oil is increasingly scarce, we know of the need to conserve the world’s supply of fresh water and we know that the demand for more electricity around the world will strain global resources. What few people will tell you, however, is the tiny component that has driven so much of the computerization and mobility of the world has reached its peak output and that’s as important to the clean energy movement as the concept of peak oil...

OPEL Announces Third Party Valuation of its POET Technology
March 2nd, 2011

Third Party Valuation of POET Technology over $1 Billion

OPEL International Inc. (“OPEL” or “the Company”) announced today that it is in receipt of a third party valuation of intellectual property developed by its U.S. affiliates OPEL, Inc. and ODIS Inc.  The Planar Opto Electronic Technology (“POET”), initially developed by Dr. Geoffrey Taylor at the University of Connecticut and licensed to OPEL, Inc., is a semiconductor fabrication technology that enables the dense packing of digital, analog, and optical circuits on a single gallium arsenide chip.  The technology now makes it possible to monolithically integrate a wide number of electronic and optoelectronic functions in a single chip with higher speeds and reduced power consumption compared to Silicon CMOS. For the same functionality, the chip size would be considerably reduced to approximately the size of half a person’s thumb nail.

OPEL commissioned a valuation analysis of the POET Technology portfolio (“POET Technology”) by an independent, third party valuation firm, Pellegrino & Associates, LLC.  The Pellegrino firm performed an analysis of the uses of the POET Technology, the sales it could achieve in its targeted end-markets and…Read Full Press Release
