DAS Photonics, S.L. was founded in 2005 as a spin-off from the Nanophotonics Technology Center (NTC) at the Universitat Politècnica de València. Headquartered within the Ciudad Politécnica de la Innovación in Valencia, Spain, DAS Photonics designs, develops, and manufactures advanced photonic hardware solutions for defense, avionics, space, and strategic telecommunications.
As a member of the EME Group, the company focuses on transferring microwave photonics and photonic integrated circuits (PICs) into harsh, mission-critical environments. DAS Photonics has established flight heritage with space-qualified photonic systems flown on satellites (including European Space Agency missions such as QKDSat and HISPASAT), providing advantages over conventional electronics in bandwidth, electromagnetic interference (EMI) immunity, and size, weight, and power (SWaP) optimization.
