DustPhotonics is a fabless silicon photonics company founded in Israel in 2017 by Ben Rubovitch, Kobi Hasharoni and Amir Geron, building Photonic Integrated Circuit (SiPho PIC) engines and optical interconnect components for hyperscale and AI data centers. Its product line covers integrated laser engines (Oz4, Oz8, Carmel4, Carmel8) and external laser chips (Kfir, Kfir200, Tamar, Tamar200) spanning 400G to 1.6T, built around a proprietary L3C low-loss laser coupling technique that integrates lasers, modulators and photodetectors onto a single chip for optical transceivers, active optical cables and near-package optics. Credo Technology Group agreed to acquire DustPhotonics in April 2026 and completed the acquisition on 28 May 2026; the dustphotonics.com site now redirects into credosemi.com. The company sells silicon and optical hardware to system and transceiver makers and has never operated a public developer program, API, SDK or documentation portal.
