Group introduction and discussion with Prof. Prasanta K. Basu | 03-03-2025
Recently, we had a group introduction and discussion with Prof. Prasanta K. Basu (Retired Professor, IRPE, University of Calcutta). The interaction was excellent and extremely significant. We discussed the group's current and future works and challenges associated with silicon photonics and potential solutions.
Group Introduction and Discussion: Bhavika Agarwal; Neha Soni; Trishad Bisawa; Jyoti Tater; Yash Bijawat; Arindam Chaudhary; Som Mudgil; Shubh Jaiswal
Delivered an invited talk at IIT Kharagpur, SPARC Workshop 2024 | 20-12-2024
Title: Break the Fundamental Limit of Group-IV Photonics: Room-temperature Photodetectors, Sensors, and Light Emitters
In this talk, I discussed the current challenges of group IV alloys, our approaches, and their impact. Take away of this talk are (i) the present and future of silicon photonics, (ii) group-IV alloy-based detectors: advanced detectors such as HPTs and WG-integrated detectors, etc., (iii) electrically-injected and optically-pumped all-group-IV light emitters: recent progress, and (iii) mid-infrared sensors using all-group-IV alloys for trace gases sensing.
