Presentation Title

Unlocking the Future of Emerging Technologies Where Optics, Electronics and Mechanics Converge

The convergence of monolithic CMOS, Silicon Photonics and MEMS foundries is paving the way for the next generation of sensor and communication technologies, particularly in the current medical imaging, datacentres and artificial intelligence (AI) application.  

In this talk, I introduce our MOEMS platform (Micro-Opti- Electro-Mechanics), which integrating mechanical, optical and electronics together with heterogenous integration into a fully integrated system to unlock future emerging technologies requirement. Through CMOS-compatible processes and deep foundry expertise, we turn your innovations into reality. Proprietary design and manufacturing methods guarantee consistent quality and scalability—making SilTerra a trusted partner for next-generation photonics and sensing applications.
