Recent news
most recent scored articles · the chip is the article’s score · click to openThe article discusses how data centers running AI models are pushing past the limits of traditional copper cabling, which struggles to carry high-speed signals beyond one to two meters without overheating or losing signal quality. The piece highlights optical technology as the solution but does not name Lumentum or report any specific company development.
The article is very short. It says AXT (AXTI) is seeing sales grow in Europe and Asia-Pacific, reducing its dependence on China, as demand for indium phosphide (a semiconductor material used in optical and wireless components) improves and export approvals come through.
Lumentum CEO Michael Hurlston said some political conversations are boosting the shift toward smaller, modular data center facilities, and the company is 'happy about some of the modular buildout' because smaller data centers are seen as less impactful. The article references the company's 'breadth of business' amid a broader data center backlash.
An analyst has rated Lumentum Holdings (LITE) a buy, arguing the company's optical business is set up for strong growth from 2027 onward. The case rests on record shipments of 800G transceivers and tight supply of EML lasers, as data centers move from copper wiring to fiber optics.
Lumentum is expanding production capacity for three types of lasers, pump lasers (which provide energy to optical amplifiers), EML lasers (a high-speed laser used in data communication), and continuous-wave lasers, as demand for optical components from AI data centers grows. The article frames this expansion as Lumentum positioning itself to compete directly with Broadcom and Applied Optoelectronics in optical networking.
