This laboratory is equipped with CVD reactors for Ge and Si growth; MOCVD reactors for ZnS, ZnMgSSe, ZnZnCdSe growth (including a quantum dot growth setup) and PL and X-Ray setups for characterization; a photolithographic clean room to process lasers, transistors and integrated circuits; measurement setups to characterize lasers, modulators, and filters; and dedicated workstations for computer-aided design (Cadence) and simulation. Current research is focused on 1.55 micron MQW optical modulators, tunable lasers, SiGe FETs, terahertz MODFETs and quatum interference transistors, quantum dot-based nanophosphors and laser
