PhotoNext is the POLITO Inter-Departmental Center for photonic technologies, focused on experimental and applied research in three key areas: optical fiber ultra-high speed communication systems, optical sensors and optical components for industrial applications.
As of 2019, the Center is closely connected with FIP "Fotonica in Piemonte", the infrastructure on Applied Photonics sponsored by a project of Regione Piemonte.
PhotoNext aims at establishing a state of the art technological platform in the field of Photonics able to address the innovation needs of the photonics companies. To this extent PhotoNext is there to support the companies in their challenge and opportunities generated by Industry 4.0.
PhotoNext is a competence center on applied photonics launched by POLITO in 2017 as one of its strategic research efforts, and received 1.8 M€ of funding of for three years. These funds enabled the acquisition of modern experimental equipment establishing the PhotoNext center at the top international level with state-of-the-art experimental capabilities.
