Title: Advances in quantum dot lasers and integration with Si photonic integrated circuits

Speaker: Yating Wan, Assistant Professor, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology

There's growing awareness of the lack of diversity in science and the presence of barriers to inclusion. What factors lead to disparities in representation? Why should we be motivated to effect change? What can we do to change things? Will our actions really make a difference? 

Scientists of all backgrounds and genders, have made important contributions in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), but the participation of women remains low in many areas of STEM, including physics.

WIN Thematic Seminar: Electrical double layer as a medium to control material synthesis

The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) has four main thematic research areas; Smart and Function Materials, Connected Devices, Next Generation Energy Systems and Therapeutics and Theranostics. To showcase the work going on within these areas, we will be holding monthly WIN Thematic Seminars featuring our members and their research group members.

For this event in the series, Professor Vivek Maheshwari and postdoc Hua Fan from the Next Generation Energy Systems theme will be giving a seminar on "Electrical double layer as a medium to control material synthesis"
