Why Visit?


We’ll be exhibiting at Photon 2026 with a range of photonic components and subsystems designed to support everything from early-stage development through to real-world implementation. If you’re building, testing or refining optical systems, we’ll have technologies on hand that are practical, proven and ready to integrate.

Choosing the right photonic components often comes down to understanding how they behave in real conditions, not just on a datasheet. At our stand, you’ll be able to explore detectors, sources and optical systems in a way that reflects how they’re actually used, and talk through your requirements with people who work with these technologies every day. Whether you’re comparing approaches, troubleshooting performance or planning your next step, we aim to give clear, straightforward input that helps you move forward with confidence.

Alongside widely used technologies from Excelitas, we also bring in complementary solutions from Kodenshi, Dahlson, Ushio and BWTek, as well as our Weymouth Design & Manufacturing capabilities, giving you access to a broader and well-matched set of options.
