Welcome to the Victorian Chapter of IEEE Electron Devices (ED) and Photonics Society (IPS) (formerly Lasers & Electro-Optics and Electron Devices Society, LEOS). We are an active committee based in Melbourne. We host regular events such as technical seminars (highly reputable members or industry, IEEE Distinguished Lecturer Programs, and many more), workshops, support conferences, site visits, and social activities for the members in Victoria and Tasmania throughout the year. Please keep an eye on the Victorian Section eNotice for any upcoming activities. This chapter will provide various events around the year and members can contact to provide any suggestions on what they will like to see from this chapter and we will endeavour to undertake these activities in accordance to the IEEE mission and necessities of the chapter. In 2018, we will be planning to form an ED/IPS Student Branch in Victoria and Tasmania and then provide support to other IEEE Sections in Australia. We look forward to seeing you at our next event. For any other inquiries, you may contact our committee members.

About IEEE Electron Devices Society

The field of interest for EDS includes all-electron and ion based devices, in their classical or quantum states, using environments and materials in their lowest to highest conducting phase, in simple or engineered assembly, interacting with and delivering photo-electronic, electromagnetic, electromechanical, electro-thermal, and bio-electronic signals. EDS now has about 11,000 members and chapters worldwide sponsors many technical periodicals, provides support for technical meetings, and has its own business office. The activities of the Society are governed by a Constitution and Bylaws and administered by a Board of Governors (BoG) and an Administrative Forum (Forum). The Society sponsors and reports on education, research, development, and manufacturing aspects and is involved in science, theory, engineering, experimentation, simulation, modelling, design, fabrication, interconnection, reliability of such devices and their applications.

About IEEE Photonics Society

forms the hub of a vibrant technical community of more than 100,000 professionals globally dedicated to transforming breakthroughs in photonics and quantum physics into the devices, systems and products to revolutionize our daily lives. From ubiquitous and inexpensive global communications via fiber optics to lasers for medical and other applications, to flat-screen displays, to photovoltaic devices for solar energy, to LEDs for energy-efficient illumination, there are myriad examples of society’s impact on the world around us. You can look at the contributions of this society for the global community and industry with its impact to novel technologies.

Abstract: Nanophotonics modeling for 21St century applications is becoming vital. Computational modeling provides a fundamental understanding of the relying physics behind the operation of photonic devices. However, computational modeling is still a challenge as some of the existing modeling techniques fail to capture the correct behavior of nano-photonic devices. In this regard, this talk will introduce an overview of the existing computational modeling tools for analyzing photonic devices, in general, and highlighting their salient features and shortcomings. It is well known that “plasmonics” plays a vital role now in localizing the optical field beyond the diffraction limit and hence in integrated optics. Therefore, the talk will focus on plasmonics modeling issues and the failure of the classical electromagnetic solvers to accurately characterize the nano-plasmonic devices. Therefore, a new accurate and stable beam propagation method will be introduced for analyzing plasmonics in the classical regime. The rigor of this approach is mainly because of relying on the finite elements method and the twice faster Blocked Schur algorithm which can exactly represent all the wide spectrum of radiation, evanescent, and surface modes produced by the strong discontinuity between metal and its surroundings. Moreover, in merging quantum plasmonic devices, it becomes essential to introduce “Quantum Corrected Model (QCM)” in order to accurately model these devices, and the basics of QCM will also be discussed.
