Huayi Yingfei was established in Beijing and is a company focusing on the research and development of high-end optoelectronic chips and devices. The company's main products include high-power DFB lasers, high-speed EML modulators, high-speed UTC-PD detectors and broadband MZM modulators, etc., targeting application fields such as high-speed data optical interconnection, optical input/output (OI/O), optoelectronic co-packaging (CPO), optical over optical communication (RoF) and satellite optical communication.

Huayi Yingfei has full-chain technical capabilities from chip design to device packaging, and the performance indicators of the company's core products have reached the international level of similar products.

As the application of artificial intelligence large models expands and the demand for global computing power continues to grow, the amount of data exchange within data centers has increased significantly, and optical communication networks are evolving towards high bandwidth and low power consumption. As the core component of optical communication systems, high-end optoelectronic chips have seen their market demand expand.

Therefore, Huayi Yingfei’s current round of financing will be used for high-end optoelectronic chip product iteration, production capacity expansion and upstream and downstream cooperation in the industry chain. The company plans to promote the verification and introduction of core products to downstream customers, while also collaborating with domestic equipment and materials to complete verification work. In addition, the company will develop cutting-edge application fields such as quantum computing and satellite communications.

After the completion of this round of financing, Huayi Yingfei will further accelerate the process of mass production delivery and market expansion.
