Speaker's Bio:
Professor Larry A. Coldren is the Fred Kavli Professor of Optoelectronics and Sensors at the University of California, Santa Barbara, CA. Following his PhD from Stanford, he spent 13 years in the research area at Bell Laboratories, where he worked on SAW devices and tunable coupled-cavity lasers using novel RIE techniques. He joined UCSB in 1984 where he is now Director of the Optoelectronics Technology Center. He has co-founded a VCSEL and a widely-tunable transmitter company that were both successfully acquired. His group continues to develop leading results on efficient VCSELs and widely-tunable lasers & photonic ICs. Prof. Coldren has authored or co-authored over a 1000 conference and journal papers as well as 63 issued patents. He is a Fellow of the IEEE, OSA, and IEE, a recipient of the John Tyndall Award, and a member of the National Academy of Engineering.
