MOST (the center for Mulitidisciplinary Optical Switching Technology) is the newest research center to be housed in the College of Engineering at UCSB. Directed towards optical switching technology for future advances in communications and Internet capability, our focus is the next generation communication optical switches for both synchronous optical networks (SONET) and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) transmission systems, as well as future protocols that will work at higher speeds. The center's strong multidisciplinary team covers the entire range of research problems in optoelectronic ATM networks--starting with people in the protocal end who define what the requirements are and how the systems will work (Melliar-Smith and Varvarigos), to people who are doing the optical switching networks and photonic integrated circuits made for it (Bowers, Coldren, and Dagli), to people doing some of the best MBE and MOCVD materials processing and growth (Gossard, DenBaars). MOST combines breadth with the strength of a vertically integrated structure. |
