Scope
HSSL is an international workshop on high speed semiconductor lasers which will be held in Wroclaw, Poland, 7-8 October 2010.
This workshop is organized by the DeLight Project (www.delightproject.eu), a project focusing on the development of novel semiconductor-based lasers for high speed applications in telecommunication supported by funding from the European Commission as a part of the 7th Framework Programme. The workshop targets to give an overview on the current status in the field of high speed semiconductor lasers. The goal of the workshop is to promote and encourage interactions between academic and industrial research institutions and to address scientific and technological challenges associated with both the latest developments and future prospects.
The workshop will be organized as a combination of plenary lectures given by worldwide recognized experts and short oral contributed presentations, plus afternoon poster sessions.
The workshop topics will be related but not limited to:

The workshop topics will be related but not limited to:
- Technology and properties of the active material for high speed lasers (including dilute nitrides, QWs on InP substrate, quantum dots and dashes, etc.)
- New approaches in the active region designs allowing to extend the modulation bandwidth (e.g. tunnel injection scheme)
- Surface grating technologies in DFB/DBR lasers
- Modelling of the dynamic laser characteristics
- New device designs or concepts for high speed optical signal generation
- New low-cost fabrication technologies for high speed semiconductor devices
- Current and future application prospects for high speed lasers
