Unlocking the power of microwaves.

We are engineering the next generation of high-power microwave technologies, bridging the GHz to THz spectrum to power the future of fusion energy, and unlock new frontiers in science and industry.

Why microwaves matter

High power microwaves are a critical technology for fusion energy — they heat the plasma to extreme temperatures and drive a current to help sustain the magnetic fields that keep it stable.

Microwaves have wide-ranging other applications, from medical to geothermal.
