Research Days invites GW undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral students to showcase their work and compete for prize money at the 21st Annual Research Days. This annual event is dedicated to highlighting the breadth of research and discovery on issues of major disciplinary, multidisciplinary, and global significance being done at GW through poster sessions, presentations, guest speakers.
Shuai Sun participated the GW Research Days 2016 in Marvin Center on March 29. He presented one of his recent research with the title "Hybrid Photonic Plasmonic Interconnects: Low Latency Energy-and-Area Efficient On-Chip Interconnects" and won the 2nd place in the Engineering category.
The goal for his project is to chase Moore’s Law by using novel photonic plasmonic hybrid interconnects to reduce the on-chip latency, footprint and energy consumption. His work also proposed several new figure of merits (FOMs) which can be applied on further on-chip network design and benchmarking. This project is supported by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), award number FA9550-15-1-0447.
