Write a Review520-799-7400

NP Photonics was founded in 1998 as a spin-off of the University of Arizona's Optical Sciences Center. Nasser Peyghambarian, Shibin Jiang and others established the company based upon commercializing a simpler and less expensive method of amplifying light as it travels through fiber optic cable. More recently, the company has leveraged this technology into cutting edge fiber lasers and ASE's. The starting point of that technology is novel glass products manufactured at the company's Tucson, Ariz., facility. Established with grants and numerous awards for technological innovation, it remains a private company with funding from Enterprise Partners, Sierra Ventures, Telesoft Partners and other venture capital investments.
