3、Monolithically Integrated VCSELs for Biosensing

报告摘要：

1、Progress over the past 30 years in polycrystal thin film, crystalline Si, organic and multi-junction cells clearly shows that the efficiency of the current approaches has virtually saturated and the focus on these technologies has thus been largely focused on maintaining current cell efficiency with massive scaling efforts to reduce cell cost. For the multi-junction cells, efficiency has increased dramatically over the past two decades, while other approaches have had relatively little improvement in efficiency because of fundamental limitations and the cell technologies are relatively mature. The focus of these technologies has thus been largely on maintaining current cell efficiency with scaling has been on reducing cell cost.

2．In this lecture, the work on developing a Ge/SiGe quantum confined Stark effect modulators and highly tensile strained Ge and GeSn alloys to develop a Si compatible coherent source for integrated optical interconnects will be presented.

3、The work on developing monolithically integrated Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) for fluorescence sensing of blood coagulation and cancer will be described.
