CLEO 2026

Last week, Chuangchuang and Tarik attended the Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics (CLEO) in Charlotte, NC, USA.

The team presented two major research breakthroughs from our group. Chuangchuang introduced the first monolithic integration of a thin-film lithium niobate modulator with a Brillouin-active waveguide, creating a reconfigurable microwave photonic filter. Tarik then shared our progress on net-gain Brillouin amplifier and Brillouin dynamic gratings using a scalable silicon nitride platform.

Thank you for representing the group, Chuangchuang and Tarik!
