The Francis College of Engineering, Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, invites you to attend a doctoral proposal defense by Boyang Xiang on “Plasmonic Optical Antenna Enhanced Phototransistor for High-Definition Imaging.”
PhD Candidate: Boyang Xiang
Defense Date: Thursday, Nov.18, 2021
Time: 9 to 10 a.m. EST
Location: This will be a virtual defense via Zoom. Those interested in attending should contact the student, Boyang_xiang@student.uml.edu, and committee advisor, Xuejun_Lu@uml.edu, at least 24 hours prior to the defense to request access to the meeting.
Committee Chair (Advisor): Xuejun Lu, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering, UMass Lowell
Committee Members:
- Xingwei Wang, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering, UMass Lowell
- Tricia Chigan, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering, UMass Lowell
- Guiru Gu, Associate Professor, Physics, Stonehill College
Brief Abstract:
A new optical antenna-based phototransistor structure will be presented in the proposal defense meeting. The new structure can be easily fabricated and fit into very small pixels of camera CMOS or FPAs which will enhance low signal performance to achieve a goal of better low light performance in high-definition cameras.
All interested students and faculty members are invited to attend the online defense via remote access.
