1. Integrated Photonics for the Optics-of-Everything (O2E)
Dr. Patrick Yin Chiang, 1000-Talents Young Professor, Fudan University
CTO, PhotonIC Technologies (Shanghai)
Date ： 13th. April, 2017 (Thu.) Place：EE2-R142 (電機二館142會議室)
Outline
Big Data, Internet-of-Things, Internet-2020, Deep Learning, Autonomous Vehicles. All of these cloud- computing applications require exponentially increasing bandwidth, resulting in the recent explosive growth in optical networking. For these optical interconnects, the energy-consuming microelectronics and silicon photonics inside are the key, as they directly affect the cost, size, power, bandwidth, scalability, and manufacturability.
In this talk, I will describe the cross-disciplinary IC design in my Integrated Photonics group at Fudan University, exploring the frontiers of Datacenter Interconnect using Optoelectronics and Silicon Photonics. Recent publications will be presented, including WDM- based photonics, 50G PAM- 4 interconnects, and CMOS- based 25G laser drivers and transimpedance amplifiers. (ISSCC13-15, OFC15-16, RFIC17)
Autobiography
Patrick Chiang received the B.S. degree in electrical engineering and computer sciences from the University of California, Berkeley, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford University. He is 1000-Talents Young Professor at Fudan University, and a tenured professor (on-leave) from Oregon State University in USA. He is also a co-founder of PhotonIC Technologies, based in Shanghai, China.
He is the recipient of a Department of Energy Early CAREER award and a NSF-CAREER award, for energy-efficient interconnects and robust near-threshold computing. He has published more than 130 conference/journal publications.
