NONLINEAR PHOTONICS FOR THE REAL WORLD
By bringing state-of-the-art nonlinear photonic devices beyond the lab,
Octave Photonics is paving the way to solving practical problems.
We enable next-generation laser systems by packaging nanophotonic chips into ready-to-use devices. Our nonlinear photonic devices provide precise control over the optical spectrum of a laser system, allowing laser frequency combs to be constructed with unprecedented compactness and robustness.
ABOUT US
Our mission is to provide packaged nonlinear photonics devices and systems that are both innovative and easy-to-use.
OUR PRODUCTS
We offer packaged nonlinear photonic waveguides, custom nanophotonic design, and complete frequency comb systems.

Octave Photonics brings sophisticated nanophotonic devices to non-specialists, opening new opportunities in fields such as astronomy, telecommunications, and precision measurement.
UNPARALLELED PHOTONICS
Our technologies work with a wide variety of lasers—with average power up to several watts, peak power up to 10 kW, and wavelengths from the UV to the infrared.
We work primarily with nanostructures made from amorphous tantala (Ta2O5). This material has a broad transparency window—spanning from the UV to the far-infrared, high nonlinearity, and low film stress, offering easy integration with other materials. Our tantala platform allows supercontinuum generation with pulse energies below 100 pJ.
Our research and development focus on making fully packaged ready-to-use solutions for broadband supercontinuum waveguides and low-power frequency combs. These devices are designed for use in applications such as portable atomic clocks, high bandwidth optical communications, satellite subsystems, and scientific research.
UNMATCHED USER EXPERIENCE
