This paper reports the promising results already achieved regarding the surface-emission enhanced multiple quantum wells and MOVPE growth study for new BAlN materials with applications in high-reflective distributive Bragg mirrors for deep UV wavelengths, which lay the foundation for final RC-LEDs and VCSELs.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EECE Ph.D. student Xin Li received the Best Paper Award at Photoptics 2015, the Third International Conference on Photonics, Optics, and Laser Technology, held March 12-14 in Berlin, Germany.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"ECE Ph.D. student Xin Li received the Best Paper Award at Photoptics 2015, the Third International Conference on Photonics, Optics, and Laser Technology, held March 12-14 in Berlin, Germany."}],"uid":"27241","created_gmt":"2015-03-25 08:54:37","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:02:34","author":"Jackie Nemeth","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2015-03-25T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2015-03-25T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"304291":{"id":"304291","type":"image","title":"Xin Li","body":null,"created":"1449244609","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 15:56:49","changed":"1475895009","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:50:09","alt":"Xin Li","file":{"fid":"199650","name":"xin.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/xin_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/xin_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":1345598,"path_740":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/xin_0.jpg?itok=Fyyz1FXr"}}},"media_ids":["304291"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.ece.gatech.edu\/","title":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.gatech.edu\/","title":"Georgia Tech"},{"url":"http:\/\/optics.org\/events\/2015\/523","title":"Photoptics 2015"},{"url":"http:\/\/lorraine.gatech.edu\/","title":"Georgia Tech Lorraine Program"}],"groups":[{"id":"1255","name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"}],"categories":[{"id":"134","name":"Student and Faculty"},{"id":"8862","name":"Student Research"},{"id":"145","name":"Engineering"},{"id":"154","name":"Environment"},{"id":"149","name":"Nanotechnology and Nanoscience"},{"id":"135","name":"Research"},{"id":"150","name":"Physics and Physical Sciences"}],"keywords":[{"id":"29771","name":"Abdallah Ougazzaden"},{"id":"109","name":"Georgia Tech"},{"id":"13161","name":"Georgia Tech-Lorraine"},{"id":"122361","name":"Photoptics 2015"},{"id":"166855","name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"},{"id":"95871","name":"Xin Li"}],"core_research_areas":[{"id":"39451","name":"Electronics and Nanotechnology"}],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJackie Nemeth\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Electrical and Computer Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E404-894-2906\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ejackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
