Prof. TSANG, Hon Ki is elected a Fellow of the Optical Society (OSA) and is awarded the Outstanding Fellow of the Faculty of Engineering
Prof. TSANG, Hon Ki from the Department of Electronic Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), is elected a Fellow of the Optical Society (OSA) for “For contributions to nonlinear silicon photonics, sub-wavelength silicon waveguide gratings, and hybrid integration of graphene on silicon waveguides. (Engineering and Science Research)”. Fellows are nominated by existing Fellows, and elected by the Fellows Committee. According to the Optical Society, “the number elected each year is limited to approximately 0.5% of the membership total.” In 2018 there were only about 100 Fellows elected from around the world. The Optical Society (OSA) was formerly called Optical Society of America but was renamed as Optical Society to reflect the truly international nature of its membership. Professor Tsang’s group is well known for their contributions to silicon photonics and this award is a recognition of their work including the first silicon waveguide two photon absorption autocorrelation detector, high gain silicon waveguide Raman amplifier, sub-wavelength waveguide grating couplers and graphene on silicon waveguide heterostructure photodetectors.

CUHK Faculty of Engineering Develops Ultra-Thin Wearable Blood Pressure Sensor Round-the-Clock, Continuous Measurement to Prevent Acute Health Events
An ultra-thin, unobtrusive blood pressure (BP) sensor that can be worn as a wristband or weaved into clothing has been developed by a research team from the Faculty of Engineering at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). Such devices are accurate and low on battery consumption. When connected to a wireless network, they can provide round-the-clock tracking of the user’s BP, so that abnormality can be detected early to advert acute problems such as strokes and heart attacks.
