معرفی
Mircea Guina is a Professor of Optoelectronics at Tampere University's Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences within the Physics Department. He leads the Optoelectronics Research Center (ORC), one of Europe's leading optoelectronics groups with over 30 years of activity focused on molecular beam epitaxy and novel optoelectronic devices like laser diodes and solar cells. His work bridges fundamental material science with real-world applications including dermatology, environmental sensing, and solar energy conversion.
Guina's research spans optoelectronics, photonics, and semiconductor technology, with core expertise in molecular beam epitaxy, III-V optoelectronic devices, quantum nanostructures, and silicon photonics integration. His team develops semiconductor lasers for mid-IR sensing, high-efficiency multi-junction solar cells, and quantum light sources, emphasizing technology roadmaps from materials to applications. Current projects target eye-safe LIDAR, optical energy transfer, and quantum technology platforms.
His publication portfolio shows strong focus on mid-IR photonics (2-3µm range), hybrid integration of III-V materials with silicon photonics, VECSEL development for quantum applications, and advanced solar cell architectures. Recent work emphasizes micro-transfer printing techniques, laser-assisted bonding for photonic integration, and composition-engineered bismide semiconductors.
Scientific recognition includes:
- OSA Fellow
- SPIE Fellow
The ORC research team operates state-of-the-art molecular beam epitaxy facilities and collaborates extensively with VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, European Space Agency, and industrial partners globally. Guina founded the International Summer School 'New Frontiers in Optical Technologies' and serves on editorial boards for Optics Letters and Journal of Applied Sciences.
