The short-term objectives of this proposed research program are to develop speckle-free green lasers for laser display and on-line pathogen sensors for water pollution monitoring. The long-term goals of the proposed program are to maintain the leading position of the research on MgO:PPLN based green lasers and mirco-flow cytometry based sensors established in Dr. Xu's group at McMaster University, to apply the developed lasers and sensors to systems such as laser projectors, bio-imaging, and online sensing, and to explore new photonic materials and devices beyond the visible wavelength range.*******Laser based display is an emerging technology in the display industry. However, laser display suffers from the laser speckle. The first theme of the proposed research is to develop speckle-free lasers to satisfy the strong demand from the laser display industry. The speckle-free green lasers are based on the miniaturized green laser platform established at Dr. Xu's group, which is compact (3), low-cost (1.5W), and efficient (EO efficiency 10~20%).*******The second theme of the proposed research is to develop micro flow cytometer based online pathogen sensors with high throughput and low detection limit, which is strongly demanded in the water quality monitoring industry. The current method to detect low concentrations of pathogens relies on the traditional cultural enrichment method in a lab, which often takes several days to complete the processes and requires intricate instrumentation/operation. Thus, on-line pathogen sensing that can detect pathogens in a fast and accurate manner is strongly demanded.*******The proposed research program involves some hot research topics around the world and addresses several key issues in laser display and water monitoring industries. Since the proposed research is based on the unique PPLN laser and micro-flow cytometry sensor technologies established in Dr. Xu's group, and the targeted specifications of the speckle-free lasers and online pathogen sensors have not been achieved elsewhere, a number of publications with high impact factor can be expected. It will enable the research team to keep itself as one of the international leading players in the areas of lasers and optical sensors, and wide spread application of the laser based projection and online monitoring of pathogens in water. It will enhance and establish collaborations with photonics companies and institutes in Canada and worldwide, provide industry partners with highly qualified personnel, and contribute to Canadian high-tech industries.***

这项研究计划的短期目标是开发用于激光显示的无斑点绿色激光器和用于水污染监测的在线病原体传感器。拟议计划的长期目标是保持麦克马斯特大学徐博士团队建立的基于MgO：PPLN的绿色激光器和基于微流式细胞术的传感器研究的领先地位，将开发的激光器和传感器应用于激光投影仪、生物成像和在线传感等系统，并探索可见光波长范围以外的新型光子材料和器件。*基于激光的显示器是显示器行业中的新兴技术。然而，激光显示受到激光散斑的影响。本研究的第一个主题是开发无散斑激光器，以满足激光显示行业的强劲需求。无散斑绿色激光器基于徐博士的小组建立的小型化绿色激光器平台，该平台结构紧凑（3），成本低（1.5W），效率高（EO效率10~20%）。*本研究的第二个主题是开发基于微流式细胞仪的在线病原体传感器，具有高通量和低检测限，这是水质监测行业的强烈需求。目前检测低浓度病原体的方法依赖于实验室中传统的培养富集方法，该方法通常需要几天时间才能完成该过程，并且需要复杂的仪器/操作。因此，强烈需要能够以快速和准确的方式检测病原体的在线病原体感测。拟议的研究计划涉及世界各地的一些热点研究课题，并解决了激光显示和水监测行业的几个关键问题。由于拟议的研究是基于徐博士团队建立的独特的PPLN激光和微流式细胞仪传感器技术，并且其他地方尚未实现无斑点激光和在线病原体传感器的目标规格，因此可以预期许多具有高影响因子的出版物。这将使研究团队能够保持自己在激光和光学传感器领域的国际领先者之一，并广泛应用于基于激光的投影和水中病原体的在线监测。它将加强和建立与加拿大和世界各地的光子公司和机构的合作，为行业合作伙伴提供高素质的人才，并为加拿大的高科技产业做出贡献。
