A multiple-channel visible light communication<br />
demonstration system is realized through a<br />
CMOS-controlled micro light-emitting diode<br />
(µLED) array. A total data transmission rate of 1.5<br />
Gbit/s is achieved by modulating four µLED<br />
pixels simultaneously.<br />

Relation between Small and Large Signal<br />
Modulation Capabilities in Highly<br />
Nonlinear Quantum Dot Lasers for Optical<br />
Telecommunication, D. Gready, Technion,<br />
Haifa, Israel<br />
We present a theoretical model supported by<br />
experiments showing that diode lasers having<br />
large gains with a small signal modulation which<br />
is limited by gain compression, can be modulated<br />
digitally at very high bit rates.<br />
MH4 9:30 AM - 10:00 AM (Invited)<br />
Low Power Wavelength Division<br />
Multiplexed <strong>Photonics</strong>, M. R. Watts,<br />
Massachusetts Institute of Technology,<br />
Cambridge, MA, USA<br />
We review recent successes and the remaining<br />
challenges to implementing low power, wavelength<br />
division multiplexed silicon photonics on<br />
chip. Integration with CMOS, wavelength<br />
recovery, yield, and implications for current<br />
applications will all be discussed.<br />
ME6 9:45 AM - 10:00 AM<br />
Demonstration of WDM-PON System<br />
Based on Injection-Locked SFP<br />
Transceivers, H.-L. Wang, Chunghwa Telecom<br />
Co., Ltd., Yang-Mei, Taoyuan, Taiwan, R.O.C.<br />
We investigated the WDM-PON with low-cost,<br />
mass-production C-/ L-band SFP transceivers<br />
based on injection-locked FP-LDs, and designed<br />
video transfer player systems to perform the<br />
network traffic stress test.<br />

Stimulated Emission in Red, Green, and<br />
Blue from Colloidal Quantum Dot Films<br />
by Single Exciton Optical Gain, C. Dang,<br />
Brown University, Providence, RI, USA<br />
Epitaxial-like colloidal quantum dot films are<br />
demonstrated as potential single material system<br />
for red, green, and blue lasing. These prospects<br />
derive in part from the access to single exciton<br />
gain in the optically dense films.<br />
MG4 9:45 AM - 10:00 AM<br />
Embedded Ag@SiO2 Nanoparticles for<br />
Enhanced Solar Absorption in Thin Film<br />
Photovoltaics, R. K. Harrison and<br />
A. Ben-Yakar, University of Texas at Austin,<br />
Austin, TX, USA<br />
We analytically determine the contribution of<br />
plasmonic nanospheres embedded in absorbing<br />
media to the total optical absorption. We estimate<br />
gains of ~30% for a 1 µm µc-Si solar cell using<br />
54 nm silica-coated silver nanoparticles.<br />

I. Kang, Seoul National University, Gyeonggi-Do,<br />
Seoul, Korea<br />
We present all-optical signal processing techniques<br />
for fiber-optical communication using<br />
photonic integrated devices. We first report<br />
passive-optical discrete Fourier transform<br />
devices and applications. Optical bitwise-logic<br />
based signal processing using semiconductor<br />
optical amplifiers is also reviewed.<br />

Technical University of Munich, Garching, Germany<br />
We are presenting an overview of InP and GaSb<br />
based VCSEL devices in the long-wavelength<br />
range. Device structures and performances<br />
regarding high-power, tunability and high-speed<br />

Photon management is a key element to optimize<br />
the optical and electro-optical performance of<br />
solar cells. The potential of 3D photonic crystals<br />
for photon management in solar cells and the<br />
corresponding concepts are discussed.<br />

Mapping in Long Period Gratings,<br />

de la Recherche Scientifique, Montréal, QC,<br />
Canada<br />
A novel and simple all-fiber approach for<br />
femtosecond optical arbitrary waveform generation<br />
based on superluminal space-to-time<br />
mapping in long period gratings is proposed and<br />
numerically demonstrated.<br />

Generation of Uncooled 10 Gbps Telecom<br />
Lasers, A. Sirbu, École Polytechnique Fédérale<br />
de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland<br />
1310 nm-band wafer-fused VCSELs demonstrate<br />
record low 10 Gbps modulation current of 6 mA<br />
at temperatures from RT to 70 0 C. Reliability<br />
studies demonstrate the suitability of this technology<br />
in commercial photonic systems.<br />

We demonstrate photodetecting devices<br />
consisting of a two-dimensional photonic crystal<br />
within an ultrathin active layer. The photocurrent<br />
is enhanced nearly 20 times at the photonic band<br />
edge, which is attributed to better Q-matching.<br />
