About
CCRAFT is a Swiss photonic chip foundry launched in April 2025 as a CSEM spin-off, focused on thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) technology for scalable, high-volume manufacturing. It is the world's first production-ready pure-play foundry offering chips based on TFLN, built on more than six years of R&D at CSEM, the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology. CEO and founder Hamed Sattari leads the company, which is headquartered in Neuchatel. TFLN chips promise up to 8 times higher speed and consume up to 10 times less energy than conventional optical components, enabling data transmission beyond 1.6 Tbit/s. CCRAFT manufactures photonic integrated circuits for optical communication, AI data centers, and quantum technologies. With planned expansion in Neuchatel, the company aims to reach 12 million chips in annual output by 2030 and to capture up to 30 percent of the global market for high-speed photonic circuits.
