By 2025, China will achieve independent and controllable core optoelectronic chips and devices, form an internationally leading level in technology representing the industry, and strategically secure the national innovation platform for national defense, information security, and industrial security information and optoelectronics to support the “Made in China 2025” target. The implementation.
As early as 2011, Wuhan's electronics and information industry, represented by optoelectronics, exceeded 100 billion yuan in output value, making it the second largest pillar industry. The pace of development in recent years has been staggering.
In 2017, the sales volume of Wuhan optoelectronic companies exceeded 500 billion yuan, and it has become the largest optoelectronic industry cluster in the country. It has gathered 42 universities and 56 provincial and ministerial-level research institutes in the information and optoelectronics field, and has more than 60 academicians. Formed a full-industry technical team from R&D personnel to industrial technology workers.
The National Information and Optoelectronics Innovation Center adopts the “company + alliance” model and operates with the market as the leading factor. Wuhan Optical Valley Information and Optoelectronics Innovation Center Co., Ltd. was established as the main body of the enterprise, and equity management was implemented. The core shareholders are all ranked in the top three segments. Companies, covering 60% of the country's information and optoelectronics innovation.
Previously, the Innovation Center, the Institute of Semiconductors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Ascension Technology co-sponsored the establishment of the Optoelectronics Development Alliance, which brought together 25 industry units such as Huawei and Tsinghua University.
As a leader and sponsor of the establishment of the Innovation Center, Wuhan Astronix Technology Co., Ltd. has produced optoelectronic components that ranked first in the domestic market for ten consecutive years.
The Information and Optoelectronics Innovation Center has established a committee of 12 academicians and 17 industry experts. It has set up an Innovation Center Headquarters, a Chip Technology Department and an Integrated Optoelectronics Department. Since its establishment, it has implemented the silicon optical technology transfer and diffusion, which is the first time for silicon optical technology. Commercial and industrial development lay a solid foundation.
