Omega Optics is a privately held company based in Austin, Texas that develops and commercializes lightwave components on planar waveguides that deliver broadband and high data rates for global space communication or telecommunication systems.

      Omega Optics, Inc. was founded in 2001 to design and fabricate optical components based on the planar integrated polymer and silicon waveguide technology. The critical optical components such as optical switch, true-time-delay, and backplane bus are under development with number of DoD,NSF,NASA,EPA SBIR funded projects.

      With its group of talented scientists and engineers, Omega has been awarded eight phase I SBIR contracts and five phase II contracts over the past years. Omega provides administrative management and business development support to individual principal investigator to develop innovative products around its core technical strength including water polution sensors, multi-mode and single-mode DWDM, photonic crystal waveguide devices, optical beam steering, switching, and true time delay device for phased array antenna steering. The effort in optical backplane of point-to-point connection and even-fan-out bus structure has provided successful bench demonstration.
