About Dream Photonics
Dream Photonics works on joining photonic components to electronics. Its offerings include photonic wire bonding, a technique that links optical chips with tiny printed polymer light guides, along with laser and fibre integration, facet-attached microlenses, process design kits and device IP. Its website lists locations in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Woodinville, Washington, and describes services rather than a fabrication foundry.
Dream Photonics and is based in Vancouver, BC, Canada. It is listed under Photonic Computing.

What Dream Photonics works on
Photonic Computing
Photonic computing uses light instead of electricity to carry or process information. Photons have no charge, so light in a waveguide does not cause the resistive heating that current in a wire does, though lasers and modulators still use power, and many wavelengths can share one waveguide. The industry has two quite different parts: moving data with light, and computing with light.
