Emcore selected by Raytheon for Premier Supplier Excellence Award

Emcore Corp of Alhambra, CA, USA – which provides indium phosphide (InP)-based optical chips, components, subsystems and systems for the broadband and specialty fiber-optics markets – says that Raytheon has recognized it with a Premier Supplier Excellence Award. Premier awards are awarded to suppliers that have demonstrated premier achievement for Raytheon in Business Management, Technical, Partnership, or Affordability. Emcore has been selected to receive a Premier Award for its overall commitment to Affordability.

As part of the Raytheon Supplier Excellence Program, suppliers are awarded for their outstanding performance, contributions and support for Raytheon’s programs. Emcore has worked with Raytheon in developing its advanced navigation systems based on its fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG) and inertial measurement unit (IMU) technology, which delivers performance at lower cost, with lower size, weight and power (SWaP) requirements than competing systems, it is claimed.

Emcore is showcasing its complete line of fiber-optic gyro and inertial navigation products in booth #8008 at the 2017 Space Tech Expo in Pasadena, CA (23-25 May). It will also be in booth #310A at the Joint Navigation Conference (JNC) hosted by the Institute of Navigation (ION) in Dayton, Ohio (6-7 June).
