(NYSE: COHR) develops, manufactures, and markets engineered materials, optoelectronic components, lasers, and related systems for the industrial, communications, electronics, instrumentation, and datacenter markets. The company operates through segments including Networking, Materials, and Lasers, offering advanced optical transceivers, active optical cables, coherent transceivers and modules, lasers, amplifiers, photonic devices, silicon photonics solutions, VCSEL arrays, precision optics, laser sources and systems for cutting, welding, marking, ablation, semiconductor and display capital equipment, automotive and energy solutions, as well as products for multiphoton microscopy, facial biometrics, augmented reality, and medical instrumentation; it maintains a vertically integrated supply chain across these categories.
