PhD student wins best paper at international conference
ORC PhD student Qiongyue (Yvonne) Kang has won the best student paper award at the OSA topical meeting, Fiber-Based Technologies and Applications, at the International Photonics and Optoelectronics Meetings (POEM) 2014, held in Wuhan, China.
Qiongyueââ¬â¢s oral presentation, "Minimizing Differential Modal Gain in Cladding Pumped MM-EDFAs for Mode Division Multiplexing in C and L Bands", was presented on 19 June 2014.
Space Division Multiplexing has attracted a great deal of attention as a potential solution to overcome the predicted capacity crunch. The development of high performance in-line multimode amplifier is essential for Mode Division Multiplexing to be applied to long haul transmission systems. Qiongyueââ¬â¢s presentation proposes theoretical designs of the cladding pumped 4-mode-group and 6-mode-group EDFAs (Erbium-Doped Fibre Amplifiers) for Mode Division Multiplexed transmission systems.
Qiongyue commented: ââ¬ÅI am pleased not only to receive this award, but also to highlight my recent research and contribute to the scientific community.
ââ¬ÅI am grateful to my supervisor Professor David Richardson and Dr Shaif-ul Alam for their guidance and support. I would also like to thank my former co-supervisor Dr Francesco Poletti, and my colleagues Dr Eeleong Lim, Dr Yongmin Jung for their help and support.
