Award For Creativity in Engineering For Lisa Harvey

非线性光学材料构成了新兴“光子学”技术的基础。II-IV型半导体在光子器件的应用中具有一些最好的非线性光学特性。然而，这些材料还没有发展到可以制造设备的地步。本研究项目的目标是表征与器件应用相关的材料（如ZnSe和CdxMnxTe）的特性，并表征原型器件的特性。该项目将在俄勒冈州立大学激光研究中心进行，并与Eagle-Picher研究实验室进行校企合作。

Nonlinear optical materials form the basis of the emerging "photonics" technology. II-IV semiconductors have some of the best nonlinear optical figures of merit for applications in photonic devices. However, these materials have not yet been developed to the point where devices can be made. %%% The goal of this research project is to characterize the properties of materials such as ZnSe and CdxMnxTe relevant to device applications and to characterize the properties of prototype devices. This project will be carried out in the OSU Center for Laser Research and as a joint university-industry interaction with Eagle-Picher Research Laboratories.
