Dear all,
You are cordially invited to attend a talk sponsored by OPTIMUS and IEEE Photonics Chapter with the detailed information shown below:
Title: : Photonics beyond diffraction limit: Plasmon waveguide, cavities and integrated laser circuits
Speaker :Professor Xiang ZHANG, University of California at Berkeley
Date : 5 July 2013 (Friday)
Time : 3:00 PM
Venue : Executive Meeting Room Executive Seminar Room (S2.2-B2-53)
School or EEE, Nanyang Technological University
ABSTRACT
I will discuss recent development in scaling down photonics. First I will present theoretical and experimental investigation of passive low loss waveguide using hybrid plasmon design. We propose a new optical cavity design approach using indefinite medium that has a drastically different scaling law than conventional microcavities, and discuss its experimental demonstrations. Finally we will show an active plasmonic laser circuit that integrated with 5 tiny cavities that multiplexed into a single waveguide-an effort towards integrated photonics at nano-scale.
