CLEO/QELS 向来以初创期激光与光电领域的顶尖国际会事所著称。来自全球各地的与会者集聚一堂，听取最著名的权威专家的最新发布。今年CLEO的议题新增了激光与光电技术的新兴应用。

我们的编辑Daniel Broaddus（专攻纳米光子学、纳米波导设备和纳米线领域）也参加了此次大会，他在这里与大家分享一下这次会议的一些亮点：

Carbon Nanotubes in a Photonic Metamaterial: Giant Ultrafast Nonlinearity through Plasmon-Exciton Coupling
Audrey E. Nikolaenko, Francesco De Angelis, Stuart A. Boden, Nikitas Papasimakis, Peter Ashburn, Enzo Di Fabrizio, Nikolay I. Zheludev; Univ. of Southampton, United Kingdom and Univ. of Magna Graecia, Italy.

Abstract: We demonstrate that a combination of carbon nanotubes with metamaterial offers a new paradigm for the development of a media with exceptionally strong ultrafast near-infrared nonlinear optical response which can be controlled by metamaterial design.


Three-Dimensional Invisibility-Cloaking Structure at Optical Frequencies
Tolga Ergin, Nicolas Stenger, Martin Wegener; Karlsruhe Inst. of Technology (KIT), Germany.

Abstract: We realize a three-dimensional invisibility-cloaking structure operating at optical frequencies. We employ a woodpile photonic crystal in the long-wavelength limit with tailored polymer filling fraction to hide a bump in a gold reflector.


CMOS-Compatible Microresonator-Based Optical Frequency Comb
Mark A. Foster, Jacob S. Levy, Onur Kuzucu, Kasturi Saha, Michal Lipson, Alexander L. Gaeta; Cornell Univ., USA.

Abstract: We generate optical frequency combs spanning 75 THz with a 204-GHz spacing using parametric oscillation in an integrated silicon-nitride microring resonator. The comb spacing is uniform to better than 5.2×10-11 relative to the optical frequency.


Integration of Nano-Photonic Devices for CMOS Chip-to-Chip Optical I/O
Ian Young, Bruce Block, Miriam Reshotko, Peter Chang; Intel Corp., USA.

Abstract: A photonic CMOS process enables integration of electro-optical polymer modulators, silicon nitride waveguides and polycrystalline germanium photodetectors in a CMOS logic process. CMOS compatible ring resonator modulators and Ge detectors both demonstrate 40 Gb/s performance.


Plenary Session: Manipulating Single Spins and Coherence in Semiconductors
David Awschalom Univ. of California at Santa Barbara, USA.

Abstract: Contemporary information technology relies on classical physics, utilizing electronic charge for computation and magnetic materials for storage. We describe recent optoelectronic experiments with single electron spins in diamond that may enable fundamentally different quantum-based information technologies.
