Xiang Zhou is currently a Tech Lead within Google platform advanced technology group,
working on next-generation optical interconnection technologies. Prior to join Google
on 2013, He was with AT&T Labs-Research (Middletown, NJ, USA, 2001 to 2013),
conducting research on various aspects of long-haul optical transmission and photonic
networking technologies, including Raman amplification, polarization-and
reflection-related impairments, optical power transients control (in dynamic optical
networks), advanced modulation formats and digital signal processing for high-speed
transmission (100Gb/s, 400Gb/s and beyond). Between 1999 and 2001, he was with
Nangang Technological University, Singapore, as a Research Fellow, doing research on
optical CDMA and wide-band Raman amplification. Xiang Zhou received his Ph. D degree
in electrical engineering from Beijing University of Posts & Telecommunications
in 1999. Dr. Zhou has extensive publications in top Journals and conferences in his
field, including several record-setting ‘hero’ results, which have received wide
media reports. He holds 36 US patents with a dozen more more pending. He currently
serves as an associate editor for Optics Express and is an OSA fellow. He also served
on the technical program committee for a number of IEEE, OSA and SPIE technical
conferences.
