DESCRIPTION:Will GREEN\, PhD\,  Senior Manager of the Material\, Devices 
 and Integrated Systems Department at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Cen
 ter\nNatural gas leaks from production wells and pipelines pose a signific
 ant environmental risk due to the strong greenhouse effect caused by its m
 ain constituent\, methane. We present a silicon photonic trace-gas sensing
  platform\, which uses laser spectroscopy to realize cost-effective sensor
  networks for fugitive methane emission monitoring.\n\nBio:\nDr. Will Gree
 n is Senior Manager of the Materials\, Devices\, and Integrated Systems De
 partment at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center. He received the Ph.D
 . degree in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Techno
 logy in 2005. His primary research activities encompass design and enablem
 ent for optical devices and integrated optoelectronic systems\, in support
  of next-generation high-speed optical interconnects. In addition\, Dr. Gr
 een has studied near- and mid-infrared silicon photonic platforms for nonl
 inear optical generation and on-chip molecular trace gas spectroscopy\, wi
 th applications to environmental monitoring. His work has been acknowledge
 d through awards including the 2016 IBM Outstanding Technical Accomplishme
 nt Award\, 2012 IBM Corporate Award\, and the 2012 IEEE Photonics Society 
 Young Investigator Award. Dr. Green has served on the technical organizing
  committees for numerous OSA and IEEE conferences. He is a Senior Member o
 f both the IEEE and the OSA.\n\n
