Finisar's huge investment in the Sherman facility - the company spent around $30M on the re-fit in the last quarter alone - will greatly increase its capacity for VCSEL production, provided that a new manufacturing process on 6-inch wafers can be perfected to deliver high device yields. Finisar's main competitors in the sector include II-VI and Lumentum, while the European firms AMS and Philips Photonics are also set to make an impact. Photo: Finisar/Apple. |
