Lightwave Logic, Inc. is conducting important work in the exciting area of electro-optical and all-optical polymer technology. Inspired by the scientific discoveries of Dr. Frederick Goetz, the company was initially founded as PSI-TEC Corporation, now known as Lightwave Logic, Inc. It became a publicly traded entity in July 2004 and trades under the symbol LWLG.OB.
The Company has extended and is attempting to commercialize the original research of Dr. Goetz by identifying premiere business opportunities for its nonlinear electro-optical and all-optical polymer portfolio using these patented materials in chips (wafers), optical devices, sub-systems and systems.
These next generation advanced electro-optic polymers and non-linear all-optical polymers can convert high-speed electronic signals into optical (light) signals, or in the case of non-linear all-optical polymers, use light waves to switch other light waves.
Inorganic electro-optic material is the core active ingredient in legacy high-speed fiber-optic telecommunication systems. Utilizing our proprietary technology, we are in the process of engineering advanced organic polymeric (plastic) materials at the nanotechnology level that can bridge and ultimately replace existing infrastructure with plastics resulting in significant performance advancements, component size and cost reduction, ease of processing, and thermal and temporal stability.
Lightwave Logic's design of Second-Order electro-optic and Third-Order all-optical organic polymers have the potential to solve the challenges facing telecommunications, high speed computing, military and intelligence applications to satisfy the dynamic needs of the those industries. Ultimately, organic optical polymers will engender a new platform upon which advanced technological applications will function enabled by ultra fast devices which will drive the continuing evolution of technology and by logical extension, the human race.
Vision
Lightwave Logic's product ideas were born out of its Founder's broad experience in polymer science, when it became clear that silicon and copper circuitry would one day reach its physical limit. Better data transmission IS possible, and better equipment can provide better results. Powered by the Speed of Light is more than the Company's branding statement; it is a brand new direction for technology.
