CMOS Compatible Optical Leaky Wave Antennas (OLWAs) and Devices

Sponsored by NSF – ECCS

TO HIGH SCHOOL AND UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS,

INTERNSHIP POSITIONS ARE AVAILABLE FOR SUMMER 2013. CONTACT THE PRINCIPLE INVESTIGATORS, PROF. BOYRAZ AND PROF. CAPOLINO FOR FURTHER INFORMATION.

We visited Godinez Fundamental High School,

We gave a presentation on

· Principles of research and academic study

· Goals of NSF project awards

· Basics of our research topic, and our achievements

You can download the presentation here.

Eric, Salvatore, Prof. Capolino, Prof. Bookataub, and Caner

We appreciate Physics Teacher Prof. Joe Bookataub’s collaboration and thank his wonderful students for their contributions.

EDUCATION AND HUMAN RESOURCES

Educational outreach activities delineated in our project aim at :

(a) recruiting underrepresented minorities and women,

(b) stimulating the interest in science in technology in general, and

(c) increasing of admission in science and engineering departments.
