Oral presentation at ECOC 2022
We are excited that Steven’s paper has been selected for an oral presentation at ECOC 2022, Basel, Switzerland. The paper is titled, “Integrated Microwave Photonic Phase Shifter with Ultrahigh Dynamic Range”.
New funded project from ARC
Our group, as a partner for the RMIT University in Australia, recently get the Discovery project 2022 funded by Australian Research Council (ARC).
This project will focus on developing new microwave photonic systems based on acousto-electric phonon-amplified SBS. The official announcement of this project at the ARC website can be found in this link.
David elected Optica Fellow
David has been elected Optica Fellow ’For pioneering contributions to the research and development of integrated microwave photonic devices and systems’.
There’s a nice news item on this article appearing at the University of Twente website. The Optica news release is here.
Best student paper award at MWP 2021
Gaojian won the best student paper award at the 2021 IEEE Microwave Photonics conference. In his paper he reported world-record high dynamic range for an integrated microwave photonic system. Congratulations Gaojian!
Celebration party for Optica Fellow
Recently we received a piece of good news that David was elected as a Fellow of the Optica society (formerly OSA)! David brought cakes and celebrated with the whole group. Congratulations David, we are so proud of you!
Four oral presentations at MWP 2021
We are excited that four papers in our group have been accepted for oral presentations at MWP 2021, Italy. They are:
- Mo2.3 – Silicon nitride integrated mode-locked laser with widely tunable line spacing by Yvan
- Tu1.4 – Simultaneous Notch Filtering and Linearization in an Integrated Microwave Photonic Circuit by Gaojian
- We4.2 – Reconfigurable Double-Injection Ring Resonator for Integrated Microwave Photonic Signal Processing by Okky
- We4.4 – Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in Multilayer Silicon Nitride Waveguides by Roel
Congratulations all!
David has been awarded the NWO START-UP grant
David has been awarded the START-UP grant of 800,000 Euros by the science division of the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). The START-UP programme is intended for newly appointed faculties working in the field of physics and chemistry.
The 4-year project will focus on new ways of controlling gigahertz phonons using integrated photonics. There will be several open PhD and postdoc positions in this project, so if you’re interested please contact David.
The official announcement of the grant in at the NWO website can be found in this link.
