Photonic Barcodes Pave New Roads for Encryption, Biosensing
Bioresponsive barcodes, capable of detecting molecules in a single liquid droplet, generated radiative energy that successfully converted dynamic biomolecular information into trillions of distinctive photonic barcodes. Microdroplet radiative energy that was transferred to binding biomolecules enabled the conversion.

KEYNOTE: Surface Functionalization with Femtosecond Lasers and Applications
Presented by: Chunlei Guo, The Institute of Optics, University of Rochester

In his keynote, Chunlei Guo will discuss developments in femtosecond laser micro- and nanopatterning, including formation dynamics, drastically altered surface functionalities, and various applications. Among Guo’s considerable accomplishments is the application of femtosecond lasers to high-precision materials processing and functionalization, including the development of superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic surfaces, as well as so-called black and colored metals. Guo’s work has supported efforts to expand clean water solutions on a global scale, which led to funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

Other highlights from the lasers track feature the use of fiber lasers in e-mobility applications, the role of lasers and multiphoton imaging in neuroscience, and the expanding application of blue lasers in materials processing.

Optical-Based Surface Metrology for CMP Optimization and Die Flatness Control Optical-Based Surface Metrology for CMP Optimization and Die Flatness Control
Tue, Nov 17, 2020 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EST
This webinar with Samuel Lesko, Ph.D., highlights the use of optical profilers (based on white light interferometry, WLI) to assess die flatness on semiconductor wafers, as well as to optimize the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. Lesko will discuss unique combination of nanometer accuracy and micron lateral resolution to automatically identify hot spots, unwanted erosion, or dishing along the die map and reference position on wafers. Presented by Bruker.
