Speaker: Dr. Qun Jane Gu

Date: 06 December 2022

Time: 08 PM to 09 PM (IST)

Short Bio of the Speaker:

Dr. Qun Jane Gu has received the Ph.D. from University of California, Los Angeles in 2007. After a couple years of industry experience, she started her academia career in 2010 at the University of Florida. Since 2012, she has been with the University of California, Davis, where she is currently a professor. Dr. Jane Gu’s group is passionate in high performance RF, mm-wave and THz integrated circuits and systems and its broad applications. The works from her group have won nine best paper awards from international conferences, including four times from IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS). She has received 2013 NSF CAREER award, 2015 UC Davis Outstanding Junior Faculty Award, 2017 and 2018 Qualcomm Faculty Award, 2019 UC Davis Chancellor Fellow, and 2022-23 Solid-State Circuits Society Distinguished Lecturer. She is a TPC member of solid state conferences RFIC, CICC and ISSCC.

Abstract:

We are heading to an exciting world where the boundaries between physical world and digital/virtual world are blurring, and opportunities and possibilities that unseeable today will be unleashed. This fascinating future world requires drastic technology breakthroughs and innovations. One key requirement is the immersive connectivity and sensing with everything. In this talk, I will present our group research activities in integrated circuits and systems advancing this mission in three key pillars: wireline communication/interconnect, sensing, and wireless communication and radar.
