The NUSOD conference connects theory and practice in optoelectronics. Papers are solicited on the modeling, simulation, and analysis of optoelectronic devices including materials, fabrication, and application. Academic researchers, device engineers, and software developers are invited to discuss the advancement and the practical use of numerical methods in photonics and electronics.

Life at a Photonic Startup – A Personal Account

Photonic startup business success relies heavily on the uniqueness and quality of its technical know-how. Success also depends heavily on various skills and activities beyond technical prowess. Business aspects such as marketing, sales, team leadership, commercial opportunity development, proposal preparation, program management, quality control, budgeting, funding, and financial planning, among others, are crucially important. This […]

MINIATURIZATION OF OPTICAL SPECTROMETERS

Optical spectroscopy is widely used in non-contact materials analysis. Although laboratory bench-top spectrometers offer excellent resolution, range and sensitivity, their miniaturization is crucial for portable applications demanding indicative but instantaneous results. Among the recent developments in scaled-down spectrometers, an increasingly popular strategy is to use ‘reconstructive’ or ‘computational’ algorithm-based devices. Typically featuring spectral encoders with […]

Monolithic, Heterogeneous and Hybrid Photonic Integration – There is a role for all

Fairleigh Dickinson University

Photonic integration has been at the center of photonic activity for several years. Over this period, great strides have been made to increase the integration density and chip functionality. This talk will work its way up from the drivers for photonic integration – why do we need Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs)? What are their similarities […]

IEEE NY JOINT MTT AP PHO & NANO CHAPTER – SEMINAR: Non-Abelian Braiding with Sound and Light

Many physics laws and mathematical rules are insensitive to order. For example, the addition of numbers disregards the sequence order, e.g., 1+2+3=3+1+2. However, such a commutative property does not always hold. When the outcomes of a set of operations depend on the execution order, they can become “non-Abelian.” In the 20th century, non-Abelian mathematical frameworks […]
