Signals in Transition: CLEO 2025 Postdeadline Paper on Millimeter-Wave-to-Optical Conversion.
April 22, 2025.
Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Our recent research on wireless-optical signal integration has been accepted for presentation at the Postdeadline session of CLEO 2025, a leading forum for advances in optics and photonics.
Together with my colleagues — Mr. Hyeong Seok Oh, Dr. Manuj Singh, Dr. Ruocheng Wang, Mr. Ruifu Li, Ms. Awani Khodkumbhe, and our advisors — we explored the design of a monolithic CMOS transducer that integrates a low-noise amplifier with a triple-resonator optical modulator. The device achieves efficient conversion of radio and millimeter-wave signals, spanning 20 to 70 GHz, into optical carriers suitable for fiber transmission. This integration addresses the growing demand for compact and energy-efficient solutions in high-frequency communication networks.
The CLEO Postdeadline selection places this study among the latest progress in integrated photonics and wireless system innovation. Work continues toward demonstrating full system capabilities, including high-speed data transmission and practical wireless link deployment.
Halfway There: In the Name of Master of Science.

"Prospectus" defence - or the midterm defence of my Ph.D. program was successfully completed on Friday, November 8, 2024 at Boston University. Reaching this milestone I have been granted a Master of Science degree.
Halfway There: Cambridge Half Marathon Complete.
November 3, 2024.
Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.
When Cambridge lay quiet and still, and its gentle beauty wrapped in the first chill of early winter, I took to the course of the Cambridge Half Marathon, each step a reminder of resilience and rhythm. Crossing that halfway mark felt like a moment of accomplishment, a milestone on a journey with some more steps yet to come.
Here's to the miles ahead — on the road and beyond.
Being in the Spotlight.
October 11, 2024.
Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
A recent paper I co-authored with Dr. Manuj K. Singh, Professor Vladimir M.Stojanović and Professor Miloš A. Popović, was annouenced by Optica Publishing Group to be selected as Spotlight on Optics on 11th October, 2024.
This work is initially published in Optics Letters. It is now open access available because of this recognisaiton. The links to the publicaiton and a breif summary in plain text from Optica Publishing Group are attached.

One negligible impact to mankind, one giant leap for me.
Released on May 28, 2024. Updated on June 13, 2024. In San Jose, California, USA.
The first journal manuscript of mine has been posted in Optics Letters on 28th May, 2024. This is a training work in my Ph.D. and its acceptance represents my acquisition of the basic ability to conduct a closed-story research and manage scientific communications via peer review correspondence and publications.
Another manuscript which I contributed as one of the major authors was accepted by the same journal on 13th June, 2024. The leading and the other major contributing author is Dr. Manuj K. Singh.
Embarking on a new journey: my first job at Ayar Labs marks a promising alliance.
May 21, 2024.
San Jose, California, USA.
I have commenced my first full-time role as an intern at Ayar Labs, under the guidance of Dr. John Fini. In this role, I am part of the Optical Design Team, where we are focusing on advancing system-level electro-photonic chips for DWDM transceiver systems. This position leverages and expands upon my previous research into practical, advanced industry applications of optical interconnect technologies.
