VCSEL Rump Sessions

Rump Session: Promises and Opportunities of VCSELs

3:15-5:15 pm, November 5, 2022

Location: Meeting Room 4-C, Level 4, Conference Center Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen, China

Organizers

• Lianghui Chen, Chinese Academy of Sciences• Connie Chang-Hasnain, Berxel Photonics

• Perry Shum, Southern University of Science and Technology

• Dieter Bimberg, Bimberg Chinese-German Center for Green Photonics, CIOMP, Chinese Academy of Sciences

• Lianshan Yan, Southwest Jiaotong University

Description

VCSELs are the light source of choice for a wide range of applications because of cost-effective manufacturing and testing, and user-friendly optical beams for system designs. They are widely deployed in short-reach data center interconnects, 3D sensing and LIDAR applications. Recent exciting progress include very high speed VCSELs at 106 Gbps per lane (via 53 Gbaud PAM4) arrays are under pilot runs. Novel design approaches allow decreased device heating and increased saturation currents. They are excellent choices for green photonics with <100 fJ/bit. The 3D sensing market stimulated 6”-wafer fabrication and testing, enabling mass production of high power-conversion efficiency (PCE), large emitter-count arrays. The emerging automotive LiDAR further leverages this development for high power density arrays, reaching now several kW/mm2.

In this rump session, we invite system application engineers, device researchers and manufacturing engineers to get together and discuss state-of-the-art VCSEL technologies, remaining device and systems challenges, synergies across different market segments. In particular, we seek thought-provoking presentations and discussions on promises and challenges, future directions and emerging applications of VCSELs.

About ACP:

ACP is now one of the largest conferences in the Asia-Pacific region on photonics, optical communication and relevant technologies. This conference will be held in SUSTech, Shenzhen, China during 5-8 Nov 2022, which aims to promote interaction and exchange of various disciplines among professionals in academia and industry globally. More information can be found on http://www.acp2022.org. In addition, it also serves to turn technologies into industrial applications. ACP/IPOC 2022 is sponsored by OPTICA (formerly OSA), SPIE, IEEE Photonics Society, Chinese Optical Society (COS) and China Institute of Communications (CIC) and hosted by Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech). The IEEE Photonics Technology Letters (PTL) will publish a special issue featuring selected papers from the ACP/IPOC 2022. This special issue offers an opportunity to expand accepted papers into IEEE Photonics Technology Letter papers.

Presentation Tips

Onsite Oral Preparation

Time of an oral talk will be 15 min (contribute), 30 min (Invited) and 45 min (Plenary), including Question & Answer.

All onsite presenters should check in at the corresponding session room at least 30 minutes prior to their scheduled talk to upload and check their presentation. No shows of the oral presentation will be reported to conference management and these papers will not be published.

Onsite Poster Preparation

Authors should prepare their poster before the poster session starts. The poster must not exceed the boundaries of the display board. Authors are required to be standing by their poster for the duration of their allocated session to answer questions and further discuss their work with attendees. No shows posters will be reported to conference management and these papers will not be published.
