Congratulations!

The Yamashita-Set lab would like to take the opportunity to congratulate one its members, UYAMA Kota, on receiving the 優秀口頭発表賞 award at the 次世代ファイバーレーザー研究会 event. The symposium is nation wide with participants from Japan’s top universities and touches upon current advances in fiber lasers. The award, showcased in the picture below, is given to the best presenter of the symposium. Mr. Uyama’s presentation focused on stabilization analysis of polarization multiplexing fiber laser with all-pm configuration.

Check our Featured Paper on Optica

Recently, one of our post-doctoral fellows has had their article featured by the Optica Publishing Group under their Spotlight in Optics page. Dr. Chih-Hsien Cheng (seen left), who joined the lab in late 2021, has been a great addition to the team and his featured paper entitled Ultrafast 2 × 2 green micro-LED array for optical wireless communication beyond 5  Gbit/s is a must-read. In addition to the above, he has been selected by The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology in Japan for the Leading Initiative for Excellent Young Researcher award in 2021. Congratulations Dr. Cheng!
