We warmly welcome you to the 2013 International Nano-Optoelectronics Workshop
(iNOW) held in Cargese, Corsica, France. Continuing the iNOW tradition, we will provide
an excellent forum for the international nano-photonics community to present their latest
research results. iNOW also presents a platform to develop social networks among
young scientists from all over the world, building friendships and collaborations for future
advances in photonics.
The iNOW program features an outstanding series of lectures by internationally
recognized scientists and industrial leaders as well as poster sessions for participating
students to present and discuss their own research results. This year features the
exceptional participation of Nobel prize winner Professor Zhores Alferov, Vicepresident
of the Russian Academy of Sciences, who will inaugurate the workshop by giving an
st
outlook to the greatest scientific challenges of the 21 century. With 24 technical
sessions across two weeks, two rump sessions and four poster sessions, iNOW covers
an extraordinarily large scope of multidisciplinary research in nano-optoelectronics and
its applications.
The iNOW mission is to establish bridging and networking opportunities for students,
researchers and engineers from photonics industries. A unique part of iNOW is a
schedule with ample amount of time for interaction, discussion and cultural experiences.
The poster sessions will enable the work of young scientists to reach an influential
audience at international level.
Two excursions have been arranged for iNOW participants, to ramble and discover the
beautiful Corsican landscapes and to board a boat for a cruise in the ‘Calanche di Piana’
Natural Classified Reserve. The excursions will provide additional opportunities for
interaction among attendees, and the scheduled rump sessions will surely provide plenty
of opportunities for close interactions with leaders in the field. We expect exhilarating
discussions, invigorating debates and many interesting informal exchanges, which will
hopefully stimulate future collaborations and spark new ideas for technology
breakthroughs.
We would like to express our gratitude to all invited speakers, students and researchers
for their participation and contributions. We want to acknowledge the generosities of
Laytec AG, PBC Lasers Gmbh, Sentech GmbH, u2t AG, all at Berlin, and RBNI at
Technion Haifa for their support of the Best Poster Awards.

iNOW is jointly organised with the European Marie Curie network PROPHET (Grant no.
264687) and the German National Science Foundation Collaborative Research Center
787 on Semiconductor NanoPhotonics and its Graduate School.
We will badly miss this year our (deceased) colleague and friend, Dr Tyngye Li, who was
for a decade a landmark of iNOW. The iNOW Poster Award will carry his name in the
future.
We hope you will enjoy the lectures and social events, and take advantage of the unique
workshop format to establish collaboration and exchange ideas with colleagues from all
over the world. Have a great time at this workshop in Cargese, Corsica, the ‘Ile de
Beauté’!

Rump Session 1:
Energy Efficient Photonics
for Optical Interconnects in Supercomputers and Data Centers
Co-Chairs: Zhores Alferov and Dieter Bimberg
Panelists: David Miller, François Lelarge, Daniel Mahgerefteh, Heike Riel
Power consumption is a critical issue in super-computers and data centers which require communications links
among the racks, boards and chips. These links can extend from less than a few centimeters to many tens of
meters operating at speeds exceeding tens of Gb/s in a densely-packed and thermally-unfriendly environment.
Present solutions involve optical interconnects such as active optical cables using VCSELS as sources and
multimode-fibers as the transmission medium for relatively low-speed and short-distance applications, and
lasers on silicon-photonics platform and single-mode fibers for higher-speed and longer-distance deployments.
Presently, the VCSEL approach dominates the market, as cost is predominant rather than performance
demands. However, as technical requirements become more demanding, and performance and costs of each
technology improve, so the demarcation of application areas will shift. This rump session will explore the
limitations of performance and costs of the two technologies, in light of future requirements for speed,
distance, size, cost, and power consumption. Panelists will present their cases and the audience is invited to
participate in the discussion.
