Welcome to the UC Berkeley Yablonovitch Group Home Page.


Located in the UC Berkeley College of Engineering, our laboratory is comprised of many talented and dedicated graduate and post-doctoral researchers. The group is headed by Prof. Eli Yablonovitch, a pioneer in the field of optoelectronics and photonic band-gap research.  Our work is focused on the exciting, innovative fields of optoelectronics, high speed optical communications, high efficiency light-emitting diodes and nano-cavity lasers, photonic crystals at optical and microwave frequencies, and quantum computing and communication, plasmonics, and new forms of electronic switches.
