Revolutionary Nanotechnology Chip to be Featured at
nanoTX'07New design of novel nanomaterial, dendrimer, produces integrated photonic
devices with smaller form factor, improved performance, and higher
functional density on a chip
Dallas, Texas, Aug. 21, 2007. The award winning nanophotonic integrated
circuit (nPIC) of
Applied Research & Photonics (ARP) will be a highlightduring International Nanotechnology Week, a presentation of the
Semiconductor Industry Association.
nanoTX'07 takes place at the DallasConvention Center October 3-4, and has come to be known at the most
comprehensive nanotechnology conference and expo outside of Tokyo.
Dendrimer is a polymeric nanomaterial that can solve many problems in
multifunctional photonic integrated circuit. At ARP, dendrimer is utilized as
the workhorse material for a number of photonic devices. As such,
dendrimer waveguides are created for multiple photonic functionalities that
enable a wide range of applications including terahertz emitter, optical
amplifiers, modulators, multiplexers/demultiplexers, and electro-optic
sensor.
nPIC is a platform technology having applications in communication,
computing and sensing. Dr. Anis Rahman, ARP President/CTO, originated a
new concept of photonic waveguide via "natural index contrast." His
expertise and interest include photonic waveguide gratings, chip-scale
photonic integrated circuits (PICs), photonics design and simulation,
terahertz generation and sensing.
ARP's nPIC technology has been named a winner in the 2007 third annual
Nanotech Briefs®' Nano 50™ Awards in the Technology category.
Optical communication was first conceptualized by Alexander Graham Bell
(US Patent No. 235,199): "My invention consists in a method of utilizing
radiant energy and of applying it by suitable apparatus to produce audible
signals and to produce electric signals" said Bell in his patent disclosure way
back in 1880.
"(But) the first tangible nanotechnology actually came from none other than
Einstein himself," says Dr. Rahman. "In 1905 Einstein published a paper that
estimates the diameter of a sugar molecule to be ~ 1 nanometer (see
Understanding Nanotechnology
from the editors of Scientific American,Warner Books, New York: 2002, Page 12)."
In 1985 Tomalia patented a dendritic polymer molecule having size from ~
3.5 nanometer to 14 nanometer. This nanomaterial as modified and used by
Applied Research & Photonics
is the basis of nanophotonic integrated circuit.ARP envisions to realize a terahertz computing chip in the coming years.
About ARP
ARP was founded with a goal to produce nanophotonic integrated circuit
(nPIC) from a new set of novel nanomaterial called dendrimer. ARP's
proprietary design and technology makes it possible to produce integrated
photonic devices with smaller form factor, improved performance, and
higher functional density on a chip. Applied Research & Photonics, Inc.
is located at 470 Friendship Road, Suite 10, Harrisburg, PA 17111

About
nanoTXnanoTX
, presented this year by SIA, is the world's most comprehensivenanotechnology conference and exposition. The event highlights advances
in nanoscience, explains how nanotechnology is being used today and how it
will impact a broad range of industries tomorrow, including: electronics,
energy, aerospace, defense, biomedicine, robotics, chemicals and more.
nanoTX
has established a reputation for delivering solid content, compellingpanel discussions, early-stage investment opportunities and a world-class
roster of presenters. This year's signature Nobel Laureates Legends
program sponsored by IEEE features a reunion of the original Nobel Prizewinning
Buckyball discovery team – the breakthrough advancement that
started the whole carbon nanotechnology and nanotube revolution we're
seeing today, and into tomorrow. For more information and to register,
