This award is granted in recognition of excellent technical books published by Wiley-IEEE Press. The subject of the award is &#8220;VCSEL Industry: Communications and Sensing,&#8221; a specialized book on surface-emitting lasers published in 2021 with Honorary Professor Iga as one of the authors (Babu Dayal Padullaparthi, Jim Taum, and Kenichi Iga).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"fieldblock\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Comment from Honorary Professor Kenichi Iga<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb20\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"iga_20221025-3.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first.iir.isct.ac.jp\/news\/iga_20221025-3.png\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\" class=\"mt-image-none\" align=\"left\" vspace=\"10\" hspace=\"10\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb20\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">This book is the product of a recommendation by the IEEE Communications Society. The three authors living in the United States, Hong Kong, and Japan began preparations for the book in 2020, just when COVID-19 was spreading around the world. This prevented us from meeting face-to-face. We held many remote editorial meetings, and thoroughly discussed both the chapters we were assigned as well as each other&#8217;s writing. I think this writing project actually benefited from being done remotely. And after about two years, we managed to get it published in December 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Taking into consideration that the surface-emitting laser I invented has reached the stage of industrialization and is spreading all over the world, the content has been written for industrial professionals rather than academics. This is an easy-to-read B5-size (extended version) 323-page book with many photographs provided by specialist companies. An electronic version is also available for international access.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"iga_20230201_1.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first.iir.isct.ac.jp\/news\/iga_20230201_1.png\" width=\"479\" height=\"462\" class=\"mt-image-none\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"iga_20230201_2.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first.iir.isct.ac.jp\/news\/iga_20230201_2.png\" width=\"479\" height=\"347\" class=\"mt-image-none\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #f3f3f2; padding: 10px; border: none; border-radius: 10px; -moz-border-radius: 10px; -webkit-border-radius: 10px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><strong style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Links<br \/><\/strong>\u25b6<a href=\"https:\/\/www.titech.ac.jp\/english\/news\/2023\/065762\">Tokyo Institute of Technology<\/a><br \/>\u25b6<a href=\"https:\/\/www.iir.titech.ac.jp\/en\/news\/news-3386\/\"><span style=\"background-color: #f3f3f2;\">Institute of Innovative Research\uff08IIR\uff09<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prize Winner Kenichi Iga, Honorary Professor Conferrer Tokyo Institute of Technology received the 2022 Subject of Award VCSEL Industry: Communications and Sensing Prize Wiley-IEEE Press Professional Book Award\uff08\u30ef\u30a4\u30ea\u30fc\u30fb\u30a2\u30a4\u30c8\u30ea\u30d7\u30eb\u30a4\u30fc\u30fb\u30d7\u30ec\u30b9\u30fb\u30d7\u30ed\u30d5\u30a7\u30c3\u30b7\u30e7\u30ca\u30eb\u30fb\u30d6\u30c3\u30af\u30fb\u30a2\u30ef\u30fc\u30c9\uff09 Date February 1, 2023 Kenichi Iga, Honorary Professor\/Former President of Tokyo Institute of Technology received the 2022 Wiley-IEEE Press Professional Book Award.
