Invest $100k in OPL get $1M backThird Party Valuation of POET Technology over $1 Billion
OPEL International Inc. (“OPEL” or “the Company”) announced today that it is in receipt of a third party valuation of intellectual property developed by its U.S. affiliates OPEL, Inc. and ODIS Inc. The Planar Opto Electronic Technology (“POET”), initially developed by Dr. Geoffrey Taylor at the University of Connecticut and licensed to OPEL, Inc., is a semiconductor fabrication technology that enables the dense packing of digital, analog, and optical circuits on a single gallium arsenide chip. The technology now makes it possible to monolithically integrate a wide number of electronic and optoelectronic functions in a single chip with higher speeds and reduced power consumption compared to Silicon CMOS. For the same functionality, the chip size would be considerably reduced to approximately the size of half a person’s thumb nail.
