Call for papers for photonics conference in China
The IEEE Photonics Society has issued a Call for Papers for its annual International Group IV Photonics Conference (GFP-2016), scheduled for for 24 - 26 August, 2016, at the Grand Kempinski Hotel Shanghai in Shanghai, China.
The Group IV Photonics Conference (GFP 2016), now in its 13th year, delivers insights on current and future innovations in Group IV element-based photonic materials and devices, including silicon photonics, as well as other integration and fabrication technologies.
Papers are invited in the following areas:
Photonic Devices - covering new developments in device design, fabrication and testing to address a wide range of photonic functions based on Group IV integration, including on-chip light sources, high-speed modulation, photo detection, optical coupling WDM, filtering and routing. Other topics sought include biomedical and environmental sensing devices, devices to facilitate wafer-scale testing and cost-effective packaging technologies.
Novel Materials & Nanophotonics - covering advanced materials, structures, phenomena, and devices still in the investigative stages. Novel materials and material combinations that enable new applications and new nanophotonic structures will be presented, including graphene, complex oxides, amorphous materials, photonic crystals, subwavelength structures, gratings, and plasmonics.
Silicon Photonic Applications & Systems - includes demonstrations of complete system architectures and integration schemes that demonstrate the future application potential of silicon photonics, including chip-level subsystem integration, as well as integration with other electronics technologies such as microfluidics.
The final deadline for paper submission is 24 April, 2016.
