QET Labs PhD student Hao-Cheng Weng has been honoured the Hon Hai Technology Award for 2023

QET Labs PhD student Hao-Cheng is one of 22 winners this year

Press release issued: 6 December 2023

Hao-Cheng received the award for his research on heterogeneous integration of solid-state quantum systems with a foundry photonics platform.

The Foxconn Education Foundation, in support of technological research in Taiwan, established the Hon Hai Technology Award to encourage young researchers in emerging field of technology to actively engage in pursuing innovative ideas. Hao-Cheng is one of the twenty two winners this year, with awarded researches across artificial intelligence research, semiconductors, next-generation communication, low-earth orbit satellites, and quantum computing.
 
Hao-Cheng received the award for his research on heterogeneous integration of solid-state quantum systems with a foundry photonics platform. He works closely with Dr. Joe Smith, Associate Professor Krishna Balram, Professor Jonathan Matthews, and Professor John Rarity in QET Labs. His work, recently published on ACS photonics, represents a crucial advancement in achieving scalable photonic integration of NV centres through the standard CMOS foundry process.
 
A huge congratulations to Hao-Cheng for this fantastic achievement!
