Aeluma, Inc.

Aeluma, Inc. (together with our subsidiary, we, our, us, or the Company ) develops high-performance photonic and electronic technologies for communications and sensing in telecom, artificial intelligence ( AI ) datacom, mobile, defense and aerospace, robotics, automotive, augmented reality/virtual reality ( AR/VR ), and quantum applications. Our proprietary platform combines compound semiconductor materials with large-diameter substrates to leverage manufacturing infrastructure used in high-volume microelectronics. Our technology and product development activities have focused on photodetectors, photodetector arrays, lasers, optical amplifiers, and other technologies. Our photodetectors and photodetector arrays can detect near-infrared ( NIR ) and shortwave infrared ( SWIR ) light. Our lasers and optical amplifiers are primarily based on quantum dot technology. Aeluma’s platform may also be applied to other photonic and electronic devices, including transistors and solar cells. Our headquarters are in Goleta, California. Our principal research and development ( R&D ) and manufacturing facility is approximately 9,000 square feet and includes a cleanroom and equipment used for epitaxy wafer production, process development, prototyping, wafer-scale testing, and validation. During fiscal year 2026, we expanded our internal test and prototyping capabilities through the acquisition of automated and semi-automated wafer probers, packaging and prototyping equipment, test and validation instruments, and related facility infrastructure.
