Abstract:

Colloidal Quantum Dots (CQDs) have been working their ways into the next-generation photonic devices. Highly efficient light emitters and absorbers made of CQDs can be demonstrated among various types of materials including CdSe/CdS/CdTe and perovskites. The wavelength tunability, according to their physical sizes, can be readily suitable for LED displays and solar spectrum management purposes. Meanwhile, the reliability of these nanocrystals remains one of the most important issues before their full-scale commercialization. In this talk, we will present our latest work on the improvement of the reliability of hybrid CQD photonic devices. A brief review on previous achievements will also be provided. The compact package and long lifetime features will be the key factors for future successful deployment of such materials and devices.

Speaker's Biography:

Dr. Chien-Chung Lin was born in Taipei, Taiwan, in 1970. He received his B.S.E.E. degree from National Taiwan University, Taipei, in 1993, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA, in 1997 and 2002, respectively. His thesis work focused on design, modeling, and fabrication of micromachined-tunable optoelectronic devices. He joined E2O Communications Inc., Calabasas, CA, USA, as a Senior Optoelectronic Engineer in 2002. His main research interests then were in optically and electrically pumped long-wavelength vertical cavity surface emitting lasers. In 2004, he joined Santur Corporation, Fremont, CA, where he initially worked as a member of technical staff and became a Manager of Laser Chip Engineering later. He had worked on monolithic multi-wavelength DFB Laser arrays for data and telecommunications, yield and reliability analysis of DFB Laser arrays, etc.  In2009, he joined the National Chiao Tung University (NCTU) in Tainan, Taiwan, where he currently holds the position of a full Professor.  His major research interests are in the design and fabrication of novel semiconductor optoelectronic devices, including LEDs, solar cells, and lasers.  Since 2016, he has been jointly appointed by the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), where he participates in and leads several key projects in micro-LEDs, 3D ICs, and silicon photonics. Prof. Lin has published more than 200 journal and conference papers and is a senior member of the IEEE and the Optical Society of America.
