Tomoyuki Yoshie
Tomoyuki Yoshie received his B.S.Eng. and M.S.Eng. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Kyoto University in 1990 and 1992, respectively, and then worked as a research engineer and later a chief research engineer at Sanyo Electric, Japan, for developing green-blue-UV semiconductor laser diodes. He received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from California Institute of Technology in 2000 and 2004, respectively. He demonstrated quantum dot photonic crystal nanolasers, 130 GHz photonic crystal nanolasers and strong coupling with a single quantum dot in a photonic crystal nanocavity. He joined ECE as an Assistant Professor in 2005.
