With almost every human interaction with the internet, optical telecommunication occurs by strained semiconductor lasers. Our laboratory is comprised of many talented and dedicated graduate and post-doctoral researchers. Our work is focused on the exciting, innovative fields of optoelectronics, high speed optical communications, high efficiency . Eli Yablonovitch , CV, a pioneer in the field of optoelectronics and photonic band- gap research.

Senior Faculty Scientist Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, University of California, Berkeley. He is currently Director of the NSF Center for Energy Efficient Electronics Science (E3S), a multi- University Center headquartered at Berkeley. In his photovoltaic research, . Rank Prize (UK), for “the idea that strained semiconductor lasers would have superior performance due to reduced valence band (hole) effective mass. Almost all semiconductor lasers use this concept, including for optical telecommunications, in most mouse-clicks, for DVD players, and in the ubiquitous red laser . The US physicist who first discovered photonic crystals which can repel, trap and steer light is to receive the Newton Medal, the BBC can reveal. This is the highest honour given by the Institute of Physics in London.
