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 />

MF4 9:30 AM - 9:45 AM<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 />

are discussed by focusing on telecommunication,<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 />

R. Ashrafi, M. Li and J. Azaña, Institut National<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 />

Y. Tsuda and S. Noda, Kyoto University, Kyoto,<br />

Japan<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 />
