Nov. 12, 2012, a seminar on silicon photonics was launched in Department of Optical Engineering, Zhejiang University from 9:00am to 11:30am. Prof.E.Kasper from University of Stuttgart, Prof.Jinzhong YU from Institute of Semiconductor of CAS, Prof.Jinsong Xia from Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Prof.Hui Ye from Zhejiang University reported their recent research progress at silicon photonics. The Seminar Program was as follows:
1. 9:00-9:30,Ge on Si: Key Enabler of Electronics/Photonics Merger, E.Kasper, University of Stuttgart, IHT, Stuttgart, Germany
2. 9:30-10:00, High-effective Concentrated Multi-junction Solar Cells, JinzhongYU, Institute of Semiconductors, Chinese Academy of Sciences
3. 10:00-10:30, Si nanophotonic devices for optical interconnections, Jinsong Xia, Wuhan national laboratory of optoelectronics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology
4. 10:30-11:00, On-chip optical sensing system based on microring resonator, Chen Qiu, Department of Information technology and electronic engineering, Zhejiang University
5. 11:00-11:30,Optimal Growth of Germanium Nanodots On Si(001) substrates With Hexagonal Packed Pit Patterns,Hui Ye, Department of Optical Engineering, Zhejiang University
In the afternoon, the four professors had a chat for a further discussion on their research and exchanged ideas to others. The seminar was successful and made benefit to everyone there.
