Biography
Dr. Chen and his team at Bell Laboratories, demonstrated frequencies well beyond 100 GHz in indium phosphide based heterojunction bipolar transistors in 1988. This technology paved the way for the use of InP/GaInAs as a material system in wireless communications. Among his contributions to ultrafast devices is a groundbreaking, colliding pulse mode-locked semiconductor laser, which generates very short optical pulses. His team also pioneered integrated electro-absorption modulator/DFB lasers which are the workhorses of today’s fiber communications networks.
