About the Talk:<\/strong><\/p>\nPowering the optical fiber internet with its huge global reach, photonics has changed our lives.\u00a0 Optical fibers snake across continents and oceans carrying millions of movies per second in a vast information network that brings untold human connectivity.\u00a0 Even your mobile phone calls go through buried optical fibers. How did this happen and what comes next? Capacity demand continues to grow at a startling rate, doubling every few years, while the internet is estimated as burning 4% of world energy usage.\u00a0 The solution to both of these unexpected consequences of success is more optics, reaching further into the network to overcome the existing bottlenecks and employing next-generation optical components. Incredibly, the same fibers that carry tiny internet signals can also generate kilowatts of power, sufficient to cut through inch-thick steel.\u00a0 Fiber lasers are the future for manufacturing and perhaps even the next accelerator for CERN.<\/p>\n
About the Speaker:<\/strong><\/p>\nProf. Sir David Payne is an internationally distinguished research pioneer in photonics, having been in the field for over 50 years. Optical fiber technology is one of the greatest scientific successes of the last three decades and Payne\u2019s contributions are acknowledged as seminal in many areas. Optical fibers underpin the internet, provide new laser capability and environmental sensing, and drive growth to the benefit of all nations.<\/p>\n
Payne\u2019s work spans many diverse areas of photonics, from telecommunications and optical sensors to nanophotonics and optical materials. With his colleagues he has made many of the key technical achievements in almost every area of optical fiber technologies and his work has had a direct impact on worldwide telecommunications, as well as nearly all fields of optical R&D. As a result, he is one of the most highly honored UK scientists in photonics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
