ELENA project develops Europe’s first LNOI substrates for photonic integrated circuits, completing supply chain
What happened
The ELENA project, funded by the EU Horizon 2020 program, has developed Europe's first LNOI substrates for photonic chips, establishing a regional supply chain for TFLN technology. This is a long-term R&D milestone aimed at reducing dependence on non-European suppliers for advanced photonic materials. Neutral: This is a foundational technology development with no immediate impact on trading volumes or prices for commercial electronic components.
