ECIO2018 20Th European Conference on Integrated Optics Valencia, Spain 30th May - 1st June 2018 ECIO2018 20th European Conference on Integrated Optics WELCOME TO ECIO 2018 Dear Colleagues, The European Conference on Integrated Optics will celebrate its 20th anniversary in Valencia from the 30th May to the 1st June 2018. The conference focuses on leading edge research on integrated optics, optoelectronics and nanophotonics and gathers experts from academia and industry. The application scope is broad and it ranges from tele/ datacom communications, optical interconnects, and (bio) optical sensing applications to more disruptive areas as quantum computing and mid-IR photonics. The industrial exhibitors will showcase their latest products and services, and will be sponsoring young researchers at an early stage of their careers, through best paper and poster awards. The conference will have two technical tracks running in parallel and a poster session. A selected list of invited worldwide speakers from academia and industry have confirmed their presence. Furthermore, several singular events will be organized. The special session “Women in Integrated Optics” chaired by Prof. Laura Lechuga (ICN2, Spain) and Prof. Sonia García Blanco (Univ. Twente, The Netherlands), aims at bringing together the most relevant scientist and professional women in the field. A workshop on “Integrated Photonic Technologies and Applications from Visible to Mid-Infrared” will be also organized by the European Photonics Industry Consortium (EPIC), and chaired by Dr. José Pozo (EPIC). The conference venue will be at the Universitat Politècnica de València campus, located at ten minutes walking distance from the coast line, with magnificent beaches, restaurants and nightlife clubs. Valencia is the third-largest city in Spain and is located on the east Mediterranean coast, which offers a combination of avant-garde style, culture and Mediterranean spirit, bound to captivate any visitor. There are thousands of things to discover, but we would like to suggest reasons why you just have to come and see it for yourself: 300 days of sunshine, Mediterranean cuisine, beaches, lifestyle, festivals and traditions, green spaces, 2000 years of history, cutting-edge architecture, unique nooks and crannies … The city has a wonderful weather and an excellent gastronomy famous by its Valencian paella (rice with vegetables and meat) and horchata (popular soft drink made of water, sugar and tiger nut). Attendants will have the opportunity to taste this and more typical Spanish food during the conference luncheons and social events. See you in Valencia.

    VANADIUM DIOXIDE PHASE TRANSITION MODELING AND BIAS CONTROL FOR PHOTODETECTION by Zhongnan Qu A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science The Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering University of Toronto © Copyright by Zhongnan Qu 2020 Abstract Vanadium Dioxide Phase Transition Modeling and Bias Control for Photodetection Zhongnan Qu Master of Applied Science The Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering University of Toronto 2020 Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is a transition material that demonstrates phase transitions between the insulator and metallic states when under thermal, electrical or optical stimuli. It is a promising material for novel devices, for instance, switches, volatile memory, oscillatory neural network units, and photodetectors. Despite being a long-standing interest in the field of condensed matter physics, the numerous observed properties of VO2 remain insufficiently explained, which impedes the progress of its utilization for electronic devices. This thesis develops theoretical explanations and corresponding analytical and numerical models that fit our fabricated VO2 devices. This thesis also investigates the feasibility of utilizing VO2 as photodetectors and develops a bias control circuit with low-cost off-the-shelf circuit components, enabling repeated operations despite the hysteresis effect, demonstrated the potential of VO2 to be integrated with existing electronics. ii Acknowledgments I thank my supervisor, Prof. Joyce Poon for granting me this opportunity as well as providing me the support and environment to conduct this research. Her guidance and encouragement throughout my master’s study have allowed it to be an enriching and fruitful experience. I thank Junho Jeong and Dr.

    Frontiers in Optics 2013 Day 1 Sunday, October 6 FIO Kicks off with Symposium, Student Leadership Meeting and Reception Attendees began arriving in sunny Orlando, Florida today for the 97th annual Frontiers in Optics 2013. Kicking off the meeting was the OSA Student Leadership conference, a Symposium on the 100th anniversary of the Bohr atom, and the FIO welcome reception. Heard before FIO: @efcloos:Today, I bought my first real suit for my presentation at #FiO13. Come check it out on Tuesday morning. LTu1H.1 More than 180 students representing OSA student chapters from over 25 countries participated in the Student Leadership conference. Presenters included Elizabeth Rogan (OSA CEO), Steve Fantone (OSA Treasurer) and Anthony Johnson (OSA Past President). Tingting Zhang (Nanjing University) gave an inspiring presentation on what they’re doing for youth education outreach events. The winners of this year’s Student Chapter Excellence Award were Universidad Autonoma de Nuevo León and Duke University. The award was presented by Monica Cynthia Fernandez-Luna (Universidad Autonoma de Nuevo León) and Mathew Lew (Stanford). Heard at the Student Leadership Conference: @senelra: Steve Fantone: Secret to success: do what you say you are going to do. Keep your word. #plenary #studentleadership #FiO13 The Symposium on the 100th Anniversary of the Bohr Atom detailed atomic, nuclear, and particle physics and the relationship of these areas with optics and photonics. Charles Clark (NIST) gave an excellent overview of Bohr's seminal work that led to the quantization of the mechanics of atoms, including the prediction of the regular spacing of spectral lines of hydrogen, and its continued impact today.
