ORAL COMPREHENSIVE EXAM FOR DOCTORAL CANDIDACY BY: Longtao Xu
When: Friday,

12:00 PM
Where: Science & Engineering Building, Lester W. Cory Conference Room: Room 213A
Cost: Free
Description: TOPIC: HYBRID INTEGRATED MICROWAVE PHOTONICS
LOCATION: Lester W. Cory Conference Room, Science & Engineering Building (Group II), Room 213A
ABSTRACT:
MWP links are attractive for many applications such as radar front end, antenna remoting systems, and wireless access networks. Conventional RF Photonic links have restricted SFDR due to the nonlinear distortions in the optical modulation or demodulation processes. A promising solution is the ACP-OPLL MWP link, which has a potential to achieve ~140 dB·Hz2/3 SFDR in 1GHz information bandwidth.
The objective of this proposal is to develop a hybrid integrated ACP-OPLL MWP link that can achieve~140 dB·Hz2/3 SFDR in 1GHz information bandwidth. Each device of the link is made of its most suitable material so that best system performance is possible. Wafer boning and an on-chip mirror are used to provide tight integration of devices made of different material to minimize the feedback path length and the system size.
NOTE: All ECE Graduate Students are ENCOURAGED to attend.
All interested parties are invited to attend. Open to the public.
Advisor: Dr. Yifei Li
Committee Members: Dr. David A. Brown, Dayalan Kasilingam and Dr. David P. Rancour, Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering; Dr. Arye Rosen, Rowan University; Dr. Peter Herczfeld, Microwave-Lightwave Engineering Center, Drexel University; Dr. Tariq Manzur, Imaging & Electronic Warfare, NUWC, DIVNPT, NAVSEA
