Chris Sarabalis' work on engineering the interactions between propagating optical and mechanical waves on suspended beams has led to an acousto-optic modulator that's 100x more efficient #OSA_Optica osapublishing.org/optica/fulltex…

Today we announce the topics, tutors, and abstracts for the talks at the 6th online ePIXfab silicon photonics summer school (lnkd.in/dsFWm_R). The school will be held online from 14-18 June 2021. See details here: lnkd.in/e8eDScr #siliconphotonics

I submitted our BEST manuscript to arXiv yesterday. It was REJECTED by arXiv with a speechless reason. Is there any other preprint server except arXiv?

Proud to see our transatlantic research efforts appear Optica! doi.org/10.1364/OPTICA…

III/V lasers on the rapidly advancing thin-film lithium niobate platform! :) Lots of great work, led by from Camiel Op de Beeck (at Photonics UGent) and Felix Mayor (my group at Stanford University) with lots of support across three institutions (Ghent,Raphaël Van Laer Chalmers,Stanford)

Application deadline January 31. Come join a great team building the Swedish quantum computer!

These positions for Ukrainian researchers can be at our centre Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology - WACQT! Contact me if you have suggestions for researchers in quantum technology to nominate.

Read about the latest work by Okan Atalar @ LINQS and ArbabianLab, demonstrating how to leverage standard CMOS sensors to make a 3D camera. news.stanford.edu/2022/03/28/sma…

Our chapter on the convergence of fields of Brillouin scattering and cavity optomechanics with Chris Baker and Raphaël Van Laer is finally out, just in time for the quantum acoustics GRC! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our WOMBAT event continues. On the second day, we have already heard four fascinating talks by the invited speakers Johannes Fink, Xiaoyi Bao, Sarah Benchabane and Yiwen Chu Hybirds. At 19:30 CET we will also hear a talk from Miles Padgett in our evening lecture at FAU Erlangen-Nbg.

Outstanding, and quite moving, talk on the history of the scientists Brillouin and Mandelstam, given by our friend and colleague Luc Thevenaz at WOMBAT 2022.

Great quantum transduction experiment led by former colleagues Wentao Jiang & Félix Mayor Amir Safavi-Naeini's group. Developing such hardware is really hard & *essential*. arxiv.org/abs/2210.10739

First results out of our new lab at Chalmers by Johan Kolvik and Paul Burger! We design and demonstrate a new type of clamped, i.e. unreleased, silicon optomechanical crystal with record zero-point coupling rate of ~0.5 MHz. arxiv.org/abs/2303.18091
