REMINDER: Future BNC Meeting - Thurs. 2/7 @ 12pm in BRK 2001 - Mahdi Hosseini
by Turner, Jaime J 07 Feb '19

07 Feb '19

REMINDER: The next Future BNC meeting will be tomorrow Thursday, 2/7 @ 12pm (lunch provided) in BRK 2001. Mahdi Hosseini<https://www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/birck/directory/profile.php?resource_i…>, Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering will be presenting his research for the first half then the remainder will be open for high-level discussion of collaboration opportunities that can lead to future center of excellence and/or also brainstorm about a shared vision for Birck. Please find below Mahdi's abstract. Exploring Quantum Regime of Atom-Photon Dynamics for Applications in Sensing, Communication and Computations Abstract: The coherent interaction of photons with atoms has broad applications in sensing, communication and computations. Understanding light-matter dynamics at the micro and macroscopic scales is key to developing scalable quantum photonic technologies. I will review our prior and recent results demonstrating various quantum mechanical effects at the atom-photon interface including recent observation of anomalous light emission from an array of atoms on chip. I will also discuss our multidisciplinary approach for implementation of a scalable quantum communication network and then open discussion for potential collaboration within Brick. Attached (and below) is the schedule of future BNC strategic thinking discussion meetings, please mark your calendars to attend if possible.

We are fortunate to have a great foundation (excellent faculty and staff, outstanding facility, and healthy financial performance and support from university). When I arrived about seven years ago, in consultation with many of you, we identified three main priorities: (1) space to bring new faculty/centers to Birck (2) replacement of many aging equipment. (3) signature or unique equipment/facility, best in the country, to increase our visibility and attract external partners. We have made significant progress in all three items above. However, we need a much larger fraction of Birck community to take ownership and be directly involved in the planning for future of Birck. I know everybody is extremely busy, but if we don't make an effort to come together and benefit from our collective strengths, what Dana, Yong and I in the leadership could do, will be limited. With the help of Peter Bermel, we are initiating a series of Future BNC meetings this semester, every Thursday 12noon-1pm at Birck 2001 (lunch provided). In the first 20-30 minutes, we may hear from a faculty member who will present their research very broadly, at a level accessible to those outside their immediate areas. This will create space during the remainder of the hour for a high-level discussion of collaboration opportunities that can lead to future centers of excellence and/or also brainstorm about a shared vision for Birck. See below the current schedule. We will update this to have an event every Thursday (except holidays). Please don't hesitate to contact me or others in the leadership if you have any ideas or suggestions or want to present in one of the upcoming meetings. I look forward to see you at the Future Birck meetings. Thanks in advance for your time.

2019 Nanodays Activity Tables
by Turner, Jaime J 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

Dear Birck faculty and students, We are planning our yearly NanoDays outreach event, for April 4th and 5th from 9:30am - 2:30pm and Girl Scout/Birck Family Evening on April 3rd from 6-8pm. As in years past, we would really appreciate having some research groups provide demonstration/activity tables alongside our standing lineup of activities. They are generally aimed at kids in elementary school up to high school. Please contact me ndilley(a)purdue.edu<mailto:ndilley@purdue.edu> by February 28th, 2017 if you would like your group to have an activity table at this year's Nanodays. Thank you very much for your interest in engaging kids in science! Best regards, Neil -- Neil R. Dilley Research Scientist Birck Nanotechnology Center , Rm 1010 1205 West State St. West Lafayette, IN 47907-2057 765-496-6080
