Looks as if Schlomo's boy graduated last Sept 1998.
under Post Doc and Student News... "Near Margalit, UCSB, completed his dissertation on "High-Temperature Long-Wavelength Vertical-Cavity Lasers" and has accepted a job at New Access Communications, Inc. in Santa Barbara, CA."

"...and has accepted a job...";-) He's just a pup!;-) Who wants to win a prize by correctly identifying 'our man', the elusive & mysterious, man behind the curtain, Near M. Margalit?;-) Go ahead, give it a whirl... My guess is the tall, dark haired kid, w/blue shirt & white logo, right near the edge of the white wall.

Definetely click on Joachim Piprek's link...
eci.ucsb.edu
Look under publications, research, ect... under Research, notice who the contact was in 96-97' for Verticle Cavity Lasers & Fusing. See what & w/whom Near M. Margalit has been publishing. I'd say that at least several of the indivuals must be involved w/New Access Communications. Here's one that is not even published yet, note the date.
Cryogenic Performance of Double-Fused 1.5-micron Vertical-Cavity Lasers
Y. M. Zhang Conductus, Inc., 969 West Maude Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94086 J. Piprek, N.Margalit, M.Anzlowar, and J.E. Bowers Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106
Abstract: The low-temperature performance of vertical-cavity lasers is of interest for high-speed data transmission from superconducting and cryogenic semiconductor circuits. Our double-fused 1.5-micron lasers employ a strain-compensated InGaAsP/InP multi-quantum well active region that is sandwiched between two AlGaAs/GaAs distributed Bragg reflectors. Continuous-wave lasing at 7K ambient temperature is measured on the same type of top-emitting devices that previously lased at a record-high temperature of 337K. The optimum temperature is found at 180K giving minimum threshold current, maximum modulation bandwidth of 5GHz, and more than 3GHz/(mA)^1/2 modulation current efficiency. The optimum temperature agrees very well with the theoretical prediction. Further device optimization for cryogenic high-speed applications is discussed in detail.
