Call for papers: Group IV Photonics Conference, focusing on silicon photonic convergence
|
(Nanowerk News) The 2014 International Group IV Photonics Conference, sponsored by the IEEE Photonics Society, announces a Call for Papers seeking original research on the Electro Photonic Convergence on Silicon; Novel Materials and Structures; and Photonic Devices and Nanophotonics. The conference is scheduled for 27 - 29 August, 2014, at the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris in Paris, France.
|
Now in its eleventh year, the Group IV Photonics Conference (GFP-2014) provides attendees with insights on the current and future developments in silicon photonics, and other Group IV element-based photonic materials and devices, including integration and fabrication technologies. As a single-track conference, GFP-2014 fosters one-on-one interaction between colleagues, including oral and poster sessions of contributed and invited papers, as well as a plenary session with reviews of important topics in Group IV element photonics.
|
Paper submission begins on 10 February, 2014, and the final deadline is 18 March, 2014. Authors will be notified in mid-May of their paper status. The complete Call for Papers can be found at http://www.gfp-ieee.org/call-for-papers.
|
Papers are invited in the following areas:
|
Electro-Photonic Convergence on Silicon – including the mainstreaming of industrial Si photonics; optical interconnect technology (light sources, modulators, and detectors); as well as industrial fabrication technology (integration of technology platforms and design tools/rules).
Photonic Devices and Nanophotonics - including current and future silicon photonics applications in telecom, sensing, and photovoltaics that do not necessarily require integration with electronics.
Novel Materials and Structures – covering advanced materials and material combinations, as well as structures that are generating scientific interest, including graphene, complex oxides, photonic crystals, gratings, and plasmonics.
