小行星9520256 该奖项在亚利桑那大学和马里兰州大学之间建立了一个光电器件、互连和封装的联合工业/大学合作研究中心。 该中心将集中在光电器件，互连和封装领域的活动。 这两所大学将作为平等的合作伙伴加入。 亚利桑那大学将在非线性光子学、光开关器件、半导体激光器研究和互连方面贡献其开创性的实验和理论活动。 马里兰州大学将在光电器件加工、半导体激光器和半导体激光放大器、光学互连、硅台技术、激光器和半导体激光放大器、光学互连、硅台技术、表征和封装等领域贡献自己的力量。 这两个小组的合并将导致一个新的发现协同作用的中心参与者之间的互动建立和研究目标的收敛。 将大力鼓励各机构的教员参与各中心的项目。 14家公司和政府机构正在成为这个联合大学中心的成员。 两个研究地点的初步研究议程将涉及： 1)先进处理和网络系统的光学互连开发; 2）光学神经网络和其他应用的全息互连; 3）半导体非线性理论; 4）半导体激光器和全光开关; 5）近中红外光学参量振荡器; 6）新型光电器件; 7）波导晶片板项目; 8）半导体激光放大器：封装和应用; 9）声光相关器的表征和建模; 10）工艺和器件表征。 一名本科生将获得一年的支持，资金由妇女，少数民族和残疾人工程研究助理计划提供。 学生将参与固态染料激光器的测量，为不同光谱区域制备紧凑，低成本的激光器。

9520256 Dagenais This award establishes a joint Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Optoelectronic Devices, Interconnects, and Packaging between the University of Arizona and the University of Maryland. The Center will focus its activities in the areas of optoelectronic devices, interconnects, and packaging. Both universities will join as equal partners. The University of Arizona will contribute its pioneering experimental an theoretical activities in nonlinear photonics, optical switching devices, semiconductor laser research, and interconnects. The University of Maryland will contribute its strength in the areas of optoelectronic device processing, semiconductor lasers and semiconductor laser amplifiers, optical interconnects, silicon bench technology, lasers and semiconductor laser amplifiers, optical interconnects, silicon bench technology, characterization, and packaging. The merging of the two groups will lead to a new found synergism as the interaction between Center participants is built up and as the research goals converge. The participation of faculty members from each institution in each Centers' projects will strongly be encouraged. Fourteen companies and Government Agencies are becoming members of this joint university Center. The initial research agenda at the two research sites will address: 1) Optic Interconnect Development for Advanced Processing and Network Systems; 2) Holographic Interconnects for Optical Neural Networks and Other Applications; 3) Theory of Semiconductor Nonlinearities; 4) Semiconductor Lasers and All-Optical Switches; 5) Near to Mid-Infrared Optical Parametric Oscillators; 6) Novel Optoelectronic Devices; 7) Waveguide Waferboard Project; 8) Semiconductor Laser Amplifiers: Packaging and Applications; 9) Characterization and Modeling of Acousto-Optic Correlators; 10) Process and Device Characterization. An undergraduate student will be supported for one year with funds provided by the Women, M inorities, and Disabled Engineering Research Assistants Program. The student will be involved in measurements of solid state dye lasers for preparing compact, low- cost lasers for different regions of the spectra.
