2019 CAP Lecture Tour

Guest speaker: Prof. Bhavin J. Shastri, Engineering Physics Queen’s University Title: Neuromorphic Silicon Photonics Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming our lives in the same way as the advent of the Internet and cellular phones. AI is revolutionizing the healthcare industry with complex medical data analysis, actualizing self-driving cars, and beating humans at strategy games such as Go. However, it takes thousands of CPUs and GPUs, and many weeks to train the neural networks in AI hardware. Over the last six years, this compute power has doubled every 3.5 months.

Department of Physics Colloquium

Title: Introduction to Electromagnetic Metasurfaces & their System Applications Abstract: "Metasurfaces are 2D metamaterials with engineered scattered fields. They have recently emerged as powerful tools to manipulate electromagnetic waves across the spectrum, and thereby enable a myriad of microwave applications in communication, radar, instrumentation and imaging, with superior performance or/and functionality.

Department of Physics Colloquium

Title: Surface Science on the Nanoscale and Optical Analogs of 2D-NMR Abstract: To be discussed are two new directions in our research group that have emerged from a decade of work on ultrafast exciton dynamics in semiconductor nanocrystals. In both cases we connect classical ideas in physical chemistry to new opportunities in materials science: By virtue of their small size, these semiconductor nanocrystals also have pronounced surface effects.

IEEE Magnetics Distinguished Lecture

Title: Cavity Spintronics Abstract: Cavity spintronics (also known as spin cavitronics) is a newly developing, interdisciplinary field that brings together microwave and optical communities with researchers in spintronics and magnetism. The field started around 2014 when it was found that ferromagnets in cavities hybridize with both microwaves and light by light-matter interaction [1]. Since then, the emergence of cavity spintronics has attracted broad interest from groups studying quantum electrodynamics, cavity polaritons, optomechanics, superconductivity, plasmonics, and phononics.
