Advances in electro-optical components for datacom and sensing applications

This presentation provides an overview of recent advances in electro-optical devices and system architectures for data communications, telecommunication transceivers, and 3D sensing applications. On the transmitter side, progress in directly modulated lasers and externally modulated lasers will be reviewed. The directly modulated lasers include gallium arsenide (GaAs) vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and Indium phosphide (InP) distributed feedback lasers (DFBs).

Rethinking Sensing – Developing Next Generation Camera Technology

Is the title of the presentation by invited speaker Peter Banzer, University of Graz, Austria. He is an experimental physicist by training and heads the group ‘Optics of Nano and Quantum Materials’ at the University of Graz. Together with his team he is studying the interactions of structured light and structured matter at nanoscale dimensions. Engineered light fields are an intriguing playground paving the way for the exploration of novel fundamental effects and phenomena as well as versatile applications in the field of nanometrology, sensing, imaging and beyond.
