THIS SEMINAR CANCELLED Nano-photonics on Silicon Connie J. Chang-Hasnain University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720 Thursday, October 23, 2014 10:00AM in Birck 1001 Abstract: I will discuss recent advances on nanophotonic devices based on III-V compound directly grown on silicon at CMOS-compatible temperatures. With the advances in nano-scale fabrication technologies, there is great interest to “tailor” materials’ physical properties when their sizes are made small enough for manipulation of absorption, emission, transmission, refraction, transport, etc. in innovative ways that could have profound implications for many applications. In addition, monolithic integration of devices based upon
