Learning a second (or third!) language has long been considered an important skill in the intelligence community- especially those considered critical languages for American security. But how does that skill end up being used in real world situations? While translation and international coordination are traditional roles for this skillset, for an engineer, computer scientist, or medical professional what roles do …
Office of ResearchTitle: Semiconductor Quantum Dots: Genesis, prospects, & challenges Abstract: Semiconductor nanostructures with low dimensionality like quantum dots are one the best attractivesolutions for achieving high performance photonic devices. In particular, quantum dots are currently experiencing asecond revolution, in particular thanks to their very high potential for silicon photonics & quantum technologies. Whenone or more spatial dimensions of the nanocrystal approach …
Office of ResearchTitle: Engineering Nanophotonic Interfaces to Control Plasmons and Spins Abstract: Light-matter interactions mediated by photonic quasiparticles play a crucial role in realizing next-generation photonic devices by unlocking phenomena that are not accessible with free-space photons and providing efficient interfaces for quantum systems. In the first part of the presentation, I will present the first experimental demonstration of a mid-infrared light-emitting mechanism originating …
