Established in 2007, The Corning Outstanding Student Paper Competition recognizes innovation, research excellence and presentation abilities in optical communications. The award winner for 2024 is our PhD student Manuel Kohli. Sincere congratulations!
Dr. Stefan Köpfli, postdoc at the Institute for Electromagnetic Fields (IEF), headed by of Prof. Jürg Leuthold, was awarded the Hans Eggenberger Prize 2023 for his dissertation "Graphene for Highest Speed Photodetectors". Congratulations!
Highly responsive, low noise, and inexpensive photodetectors that operate in the mid-infrared (MIR) wavelength regime are in high demand forapplications ranging from fundamental science to large scale industries. In this work, mercury telluride (HgTe) colloidal quantum dot (cQD) based photodetectors are systematically improved by the introduction of new metamaterial designs.
