Invited Speaker at OPTIC 2024S1-Nanophotonic Materials and Devices 1. Profile Dr. Ya-Lun Ho (何亜倫) / Senior Researcher,Research Center for Electronic and Optical Materials,National Institute for Materials Science, Japan 2. Biography  Ya-Lun Ho received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from National Taiwan University in 2009 and 2010, respectively, and his Ph.D. from The University of Tokyo in 2015. From 2014 to 2017, he was a JSPS Research Fellow, followed by his role as an Assistant Professor at The University of Tokyo from 2017 to 2022. Since July 2023, he has been a Senior Researcher at the Research Center for Electronic and Optical Materials, National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS).Ya-Lun Ho's research focuses on nanophotonics and plasmonics based on 2D and low-dimensional materials, with a current emphasis on atomic-layer and membrane metasurfaces. His expertise lies in the design and fabrication of advanced nanophotonic platforms, optimized for a diverse array of photonic and optoelectronic applications. 3. Title Membrane Nanophotonic Platform for Enhancing Light-Matter Coupling in 2D Transition Metal Dichalcogenides 4. Abstract Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are at the forefront of nanophotonics due to their remarkable optical properties. Their 2D structure enables efficient light absorption and emission, making them promising candidates for next-generation nanophotonic and quantum devices. However, their atomic thinness limits light-matter interaction. The integration of TMDC monolayers with photonic structures, particularly nanophotonic platforms supporting bound states in the continuum (BICs), enhances light-matter coupling, resulting in high-quality-factor (Q-factor) spontaneous emission. The freestanding finite-area membrane nanophotonic platform minimizes radiation loss and amplifies light-matter interaction across a micrometer-scale area while maintaining a high Q-factor. This membrane nanophotonic platform opens new possibilities for developing 2D material-based nanophotonic devices.**The Optics & Photonics Taiwan International Conference will be held on November 26th to 29th, 2024 at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, Taipei, Taiwan.
