Photonic Materials and Devices

Our recent advances in solid-state optoelectronic materials and devices will be reviewed. In the area of glass optics, fabrication of novel microstructured and multi-core fibers and their use in realizing single mode lasers will be summarized. In organic and plastic optics, photorefractive polymers for 3D display applications and nonlinear optical polymers for high speed modulators in RF photon...

Entangled Solid-State Circuits

Solid-State Circuits Society

New Research Laboratory This story starts in 1962 with the foundation of CEH (Centre Electronique Horloger or “Watchmakers Electronic Center”). The bipolar junction transistor (BJT) was 14 years old and had already replaced the vacuum tube in most electronic systems. A few years had passed since the invention of the integrated circuit, followed by that of the planar process by Swiss born physic...

The human ear is one of the greatest marvels of nature: the inner ear or cochlea performs at least 1GFLOPS of real-time sensing, filtering, amplification, gain control, and data-compression computations in a tiny volume. The ear consumes about 14 μW of power while running on a 150mV battery; it could run on a pair of AA batteries for 15 years. The ear can sense 0.05 angstroms of eardrum motion ...
