Co-packaged optics remains in a very early adoption phase

Silicon-on-insulator substrates are a bottleneck enabler for advanced photonics in CPO
As hyperscale and AI clusters push bandwidth inside the rack, co-packaged optics will need specialized SOI wafers. A near-monopoly supplier of SOI can capture durable economics before the market fully scales.
| Instrument | Side | Target | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOI.PA | Long | SOI is a differentiated input for high-performance silicon photonics; limited competition and rising CPO intensity support pricing power and volume growth over a multi-year buildout. |
MOCVD equipment suppliers benefit from whichever player wins the laser and transceiver race
CPO adoption depends on efficient III-V epitaxy for lasers and optical components. Leading MOCVD tool vendors sit upstream of competing chip and module designs, so volume growth is less tied to a single winner.
| Instrument | Side | Target | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| AIXA.DE | Long | Dominant MOCVD positioning makes the company a picks-and-shovels play on CPO and high-speed optical buildout, with demand driven by multiple laser and transceiver roadmaps rather than one design win. |
