Prof. Dallesasse Interviewed About VCSEL Work
“VCSELs are a type of device that are seeing broad use in a growing number of applications,” said Dallesasse. “They are being looked at for use in self-driving cars that utilize LIDAR, and are already extensively used in the fiber optic networks of large data centers.”
“We’re specifically looking at ways of improving the optical beam that comes out of the VCSEL,” said Dallesasse. “When you have a device like a VCSEL, the optical modes can be thought of as the light patterns on the surface. In order for you to utilize patterns, it’s desirable to be able to control those light patterns.”

Patrick Su and Fu-Chen (Alex) Hsiao are awarded the II-VI Foundation Block-Gift Award
Patrick Su and Fu-Chen (Alex) Hsiao were awarded the II-VI Foundation Block-Gift award aiming to develop the professional knowledge and experience of Ph.D. candidates. This project is focused on developing single-mode high-power Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs). They are grateful for the support and opportunity provided by the II-VI Foundation.
John Carlson wins Best Poster Award at CS MANTECH 2018
At the International Compound Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology (CS MANTECH) 2018, John Carlson and Patrick Su were honored with the Best Poster Award on a method of integrating III-V semiconductor material suitable for lasers onto silicon which is used for CMOS electronics. John has demonstrated a novel demonstration of epitaxial bonding and transfer for heterogeneous integration of electron-photonic circuitry.
