Kam Tai CHAN Professor B.Sc. (Hong Kong), Ph.D. (Cornell), MIEEE
Resume of Career Kam-tai Chan received his Ph.D. from Cornell University in Applied Physics in March, 1986. His thesis research involved the preparation of ultrathin compound semiconductor materials for optoelectronics and quantum-size effect devices. He was sponsored by General Electric Company to stay on at Cornell University as a Postdoctoral Research Associate to work on high power lasers and integrated photodetectors. He joined Hewlett-Packard Company in July, 1986 at its Microwave Technology Division. He participated in projects that eventually led to the production of 33 GHz PIN photodetectors and 70 GHz High Electron Mobility Transistors. In 1989 he was invited by Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory of the University of California at Berkeley to serve as a Visiting Industrial Fellow to develop industrial applications of the extensive sophisticated instrumentation in the Laboratory. He resigned from Hewlett-Packard at the end of 1991 to assume his present position at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Current Research Interests Semiconductor lasers, integrated optics, quantum-size effect devices, optical switches and modulators, fiber ring lasers, fiber Bragg gratings and their applications, soliton transmission and DECT wireless communication.
