HyperLight

aid: hyperlight
name: HyperLight
description: 'HyperLight Corporation is a Cambridge, Massachusetts photonics company founded by Mian Zhang out of Harvard
  University that designs and manufactures thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonic integrated circuits. Its patented TFLN
  Chiplet platform pairs the electro-optic properties of thin-film lithium niobate with CMOS-like, high-volume wafer fabrication
  to produce IMDD transmitter PICs at up to 448 Gbps per lane, dual-polarization IQ transmitter PICs for 130/200/260 Gbaud
  coherent links, and packaged standalone modulators with up to 145 GHz bandwidth, aimed at AI and hyperscale data center
  interconnect, DCI and telecom transport, test and measurement, and emerging quantum and sensing applications. The company
  manufactures through tier-1 foundry and OSAT partners including UMC and its compound semiconductor subsidiary Wavetek on
  6-inch and 8-inch wafers, is ISO 9001:2015 certified as of September 2025, and raised an $80M Series C led by MediaTek with
  participation from UMC Capital, Jabil, Foxconn, EDBI, CDIB-TEN Capital and the Qatar Investment Authority, following a $37M
  Series B in September 2024. HyperLight is a semiconductor hardware business: its public site covers company, applications,
  custom development, three product lines, patents, careers and a sales contact, and it publishes no developer program, API,
  SDK, webhook surface or machine-readable specification of any kind.'

  detail: HyperLight makes thin-film lithium niobate photonic chips, not software — hyperlightcorp.com is a nine-page marketing
    and sales site (company, applications, custom, three product pages, patents, contact, shopping cart) where /openapi.json,
    /swagger.json, /api-docs, /docs, /graphql and /llms.txt all return a real 404, every /.well-known/* path returns the same
    404 page, and api./docs./developer.hyperlightcorp.com do not resolve in DNS; the only "hyperlight" packages on npm, PyPI
    and crates.io belong to the unrelated hyperlight-dev sandboxing project.
