On March 19th, several of our lab’s students attended the online graduation ceremony and received their diplomas. The lab had a total 3 Masters level graduates and 1 Bachelors level graduate. Although we are sad to see them leave the lab, we wish them the best in their future endeavors.
Congratulations to: Hengwei Zhao, Naoki Yamaguchi, Zekun Cui (Masters) and Eibon Tsuchiya (Bachelors).
Assoc. Prof. Set Sze Yun, Dr. Chao Zhang, and Naoki Yamaguchi held on-demand English lectures hosted by Tokyo Global Gateway (TGG).
TGG is a large-scale education project initiated by the Tokyo Metropolitan Board of Education that aims to provide an opportunity for all the students at elementary, junior high and senior high schools in Tokyo and elsewhere in Japan to use English as a communication tool, foster communication with people from different cultures in English and nurture a readiness to survive in a globalized world.
Our master student Zhuan Yuanjun won an excellent master thesis award.
Associate Professor Sze Yun SET was selected as a Fellow of OSA for the invention of carbon nanotube mode-locked lasers and nano-carbon photonics, and pioneering contributions to the commercialization of technologies related to ultrafast optics.
Founded in 1916, OSA is an academic society headquartered in the United States. Since its inception, OSA has played a leading role in the fields of optics and photonics research. Fewer than 0.5% of the members are selected each year for their outstanding achievements in the field, unparalleled experience and knowledge, and their achievements for reform and progress. Therefore, only a limited number of people are certified to be promoted to fellows.
