报告内容简介：The Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) is one of  the world’s leading institutes for photonics research based at the University of Southampton. Formed in 1989 as an Interdisciplinary Research Centre, the ORC merges groups from Electronics and  Computer Science, and Physics and Astronomy at the University. The ORC has a vibrant community of researchers, led by some of the leading figures in the field of photonics. It has contributed significantly to the remarkable growth of the photonics industry, including the optical  telecommunication technology that underpins the internet as well as many solutions in medicine, bio-sensing, security and manufacturing.  The ORC has very strong links with local, national and international  industries, and collaborate with many university groups around the world as well as other schools within the University of Southampton. Staffs  from the ORC are encouraged to pursue industrial links, the ORC is not  only one of the leading research centres in this area, working with the  Research and Innovation Services department at the University, but also  very successful in academic aspect, with around 300 publications per  year, 50 Invited or Plenary talks, and a spectacular history of innovation. Its mission is to make a positive difference to the world around us, to  drive the basic science, technology and innovation to enable future revolutions.
