The TFLT photonic integrated circuit platform

Every Miraex product is built on one proprietary foundation: thin-film lithium tantalate photonic integrated circuits engineered for high-efficiency electro-optic transduction.
Why TFLT

Thin-film lithium tantalate, engineered for quantum

TFLT delivers the strong electro-optic response needed to move quantum information between microwave and optical light — with the low loss, low power and cryogenic compatibility that superconducting and spin-qubit systems demand. The platform is compact and power-efficient by design.
Nonlinear parametric & electro-optic processes on one platform — including optical–optical conversion and amplification
Triply-resonant and traveling-wave device designs, covered by a patent portfolio
Operates from Hz level to 100 GHz+, across a broad wavelength range from UV to 2 µm
Customisable & exclusive OEM designs and licensing schemes
