This reactor is the oldest operating in the nation and has undergone numerous power upgrades, renovations, and other changes. The reactor serves the research purposes of the Penn State Department of Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering as well as researchers from industry and other universities. Its total licensed thermal output is 1.1 MW ...
Donati's main field of research has been Photonic Engineering. In the period 1975 to 1990 he worked on components and sensors, with innovative contributions to the development of fiber couplers (ending in a spin-off, Tel.Es company, active for 7 years and with a 24-people workforce, selling for a period the best 0.05-dB insertion loss fused couplers) and optical isolators (both free-space and ...
The College of Engineering has over 100,000 living engineering alumni. [1] The Penn State Engineering Alumni Society (PSEAS) is the oldest active alumni group at The Pennsylvania State University. [1] Notable alumni include: Benson L. Dutton (1933, Civil Engineering), the first African-American to graduate from Penn State's College of ...

The word 'Photonics' is derived from the Greek word "phos" meaning light (which has genitive case "photos" and in compound words the root "photo-" is used); it appeared in the late 1960s to describe a research field whose goal was to use light to perform functions that traditionally fell within the typical domain of electronics, such as telecommunications, information processing, etc ...
Unlike electronic integration where silicon is the dominant material, system photonic integrated circuits have been fabricated from a variety of material systems, including electro-optic crystals such as lithium niobate, silica on silicon, silicon on insulator, various polymers, and semiconductor materials which are used to make semiconductor lasers such as GaAs and InP.
