Two-day vacuum workshop on April 17th and 18th 2012 from 11:00-1:00 pm in MRL 280!
Do you work with vacuum systems?
PLD? MBE? CVD? ALD? Sputtering?
Ever wonder how to build a vacuum chamber?
Ever wonder why your base pressure is too high?
Ever wonder what materials are vacuum compatible?
Ever wonder how to use a leak detector?
These are some of the questions we will be addressing at our
two day vacuum workshop on April 17th and 18th from 11:00-1:00 pm in MRL 280!
The full list of topics are: gas and surface physics, vacuum technology, industry standards, component design and fabrication, system operation and safety.
Lunch will be provided.
To attend pre-register with the form at the bottom of this page. (Registration is now closed.)

Semiconductor quantum dot lasers have been extensively studied for applications in future lightwave telecommunications systems. Prof. Coleman described the growth, processing and characteristics of quantum dot and nanostructure lasers that exhibit interesting and potentially important effects arising from reduction of the active medium to the quantum regime (<50 nm) in all three dimensions. The motivation for quantum dots in lasers was outlined along with methods for forming self-assembled and patterned quantum dots. The resultant laser characteristics was presented. Prof. Coleman introduced a novel inverted quantum dot structure or nanopore laser, containing three dimensional quantization formed from an engineered periodicity.
