Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Optoelectronic Devices, Interconnects, and Packaging

该奖项在亚利桑那大学和马里兰大学之间建立了一个光电器件、互连和封装联合工业/大学合作研究中心。该中心将专注于光电器件、互连和封装领域的活动。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、半导体激光研究和互连方面贡献其开创性的实验和理论活动。马里兰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、光互连、硅工作台技术、激光器和半导体激光放大器、光互连、硅工作台技术、表征和封装等领域贡献自己的力量。随着中心参与者之间的互动建立和研究目标的趋同，两个小组的合并将导致新的协同效应。强烈鼓励每个机构的教员参与每个中心的项目。14家公司和政府机构将成为这个联合大学中心的成员。这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互连开发；2)光学神经网络全息互连及其应用；3)半导体非线性理论；4)半导体激光器及全光开关；5)近中红外光学参量振荡器；6)新型光电器件；7)波导晶圆板项目；8)半导体激光放大器：封装与应用；9)声光相关器的表征与建模；10)工艺和器件特性。本科生将获得为期一年的资助，资金由妇女、少数民族和残疾人工程研究助理项目提供。该学生将参与固态染料激光器的测量，以制备用于不同光谱区域的紧凑、低成本激光器。

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.
