Optical transceivers, switches, and components move data at the speed of light across metro, long haul, sub-sea, and data center interconnect (DCI). Optical devices demand smaller footprints, faster processing power, improved long-term reliability, and cost-effectiveness. In production, alignment and assembly precision are critical.
Optical transport networks provide high-speed data communications access for growing volumes of data. Optical interconnects must be reliable and efficient and advanced materials help improve performance.

One-part, liquid formable gel materials provide a balance between process flexibility, low component stress and high-reliability thermal performance. Dispensable for high-volume manufacturing, thermal gels are available in thermal conductivities up to 10.0 W/m-K, and provide a range of attributes including low volatility, high vertical gap stability, and reliability in challenging environments.
Larger, high-performance Layer 1/Layer 2 ASIC and/FPGA devices must effectively dissipate heat for proper function. Bergquist® phase change materials are the optimal solution, providing a mess-free alternative to thermal grease.
Low-modulus, high-conductivity Bergquist® GAP PAD® materials provide excellent conformability and low-stress thermal performance for IC devices not requiring a larger heat sink attachment.
Optical transceivers utilize laser diodes and photodiodes for high-speed data transmission over fiber optic cables. Advanced materials in optical transceivers help maintain stability, enable precise alignment, and deliver optimal light into the optical fiber, enabling high-speed data transmission.
