("Chuck") Mattera Jr., former Chair and CEO of Coherent Corp., as a Strategic Advisor. Mattera grew II-VI/Coherent from $150M to over $5B in revenue during his tenure. Uviquity's AlN platform spans deep ultraviolet to infrared, enabling wavelength conversion, routing, and modulation on a single chip. Commercial products include the world's first chip-scale 229 nm deep-UV laser module, targeting spectroscopy, quantum systems, and sensing applications. OEM sampling begins Q4 2026, with quantum and sensing markets as primary targets. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What is the world's first chip-scale deep-UV laser wavelength demonstrated on an integrated photonics platform? Uviquity demonstrated the world's first chip-scale laser at 229 nm, delivering collimated, narrow-linewidth deep-UV output on a photonic integrated circuit chip based on aluminum nitride. The product targets Raman and fluorescence spectroscopy, semiconductor inspection, precision metrology, pharmaceutical production, and environmental monitoring. OEM partner sampling is scheduled to begin in Q4 2026. _Developers and researchers tracking photonics hardware milestones for quantum and sensing applications follow developments like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Innolume Expands Quantum Dot Laser Production With Veeco MBE System](https://daily.dev/posts/innolume-expands-quantum-dot-laser-production-with-veeco-mbe-system-hrrz4eo70) · The Quantum Insider · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Coherent Breaks Ground on Expanded Texas Facility, Scaling AI’s Optical Backbone](https://daily.dev/posts/coherent-breaks-ground-on-expanded-texas-facility-scaling-ai-s-optical-backbone-g4tln9p1q) · NVIDIA · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [ASML spinout Invisix raises €20M to see inside the chips optics can’t](https://daily.dev/posts/asml-spinout-invisix-raises-20m-to-see-inside-the-chips-optics-can-t-lyf7cdk1x) · The Next Web · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Quantum photonic chip integrates light-emitting molecules with single-mode waveguides](https://daily.dev/posts/quantum-photonic-chip-integrates-light-emitting-molecules-with-single-mode-waveguides-6jpxvmwwh) · Phys.org · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#quantum-computing](https://daily.dev/tags/quantum-computing) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/former-coherent-ceo-chuck-mattera-joins-uviquity-as-strategic-advisor-o4ykmnny4) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Former Coherent CEO Chuck Mattera Joins Uviquity as Strategic Advisor","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/former-coherent-ceo-chuck-mattera-joins-uviquity-as-strategic-advisor-o4ykmnny4","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/former-coherent-ceo-chuck-mattera-joins-uviquity-as-strategic-advisor-o4ykmnny4"},"datePublished":"2026-08-07T10:34:02.400Z","dateModified":"2026-08-07T10:34:32.082Z","description":"Uviquity, a deep-tech company building integrated photonics on aluminum nitride (AlN), has appointed Dr. Vincent D.
