$ALMU Based on Aeluma's recent disclosures and industry standards, the qualification process for their 300mm wafer technology by OEM customers, particularly in the Tier-1 automotive and defense sectors, involves long, rigorous cycles, with commercialization efforts and high-volume production typically falling within a 12–36 month horizon.
Sampling and Initial Evaluation: Aeluma began sampling its large-diameter (up to 300mm/12-inch) wafer photodetectors to a Tier-1 automotive supplier in March 2023. These initial stages involve performance validation by third parties.
