Optoelectronics for the Green Revolution

September 9-10 in Lakewood, CO

It’s hard to miss the increased focus on sustainable technologies…and optoelectronics has a key role to play in the “green revolution.” OIDA and Greentech Media have teamed up to deliver a comprehensive and thought-provoking Green Light Forum and Exhibition, September 9-10, in Lakewood, CO. You’ll want to mark your calendar to attend this timely forum!

Efficiency, monitoring, and energy generation are areas where photonic technology will be important. “Green photonics” impacts energy generation (photovoltaic), lighting (solid state lighting), display (emissive and other efficient technologies), and communications (intra and inter chip, board, and system). The two-day forum will not only present industry leaders and experts who will offer their insights and views about these key technologies but the concurrent exhibition will showcase companies that will enable optoelectronics to play a major role in the green revolution and their latest technologies.

Photonic Integration

October 7-8 in Monterey, CA

Integrated photonics will be the topic at OIDA’s forum in Monterey, CA, on October 7-8. Integration of multiple optical elements, often with electronics, onto single die of InP, Si, or CMOS platform will provide the next major advances in complexity of optoelectronic systems. Problems as complex as multiterabit on-chip data busses and optical modulation modems will need the advances of photonic integration to achieve cost, efficiency, and performance goals.

Novel integration processes have made major strides to accommodate diverse device elements and materials in the laboratories. We will discuss the commercial viability of these technologies in manufacturing. This in-depth look at the technical and business aspects will portend the future of optoelectronics. See the latest technical and business advances in this exciting area this fall.

More details will be available soon!
