Xiaoyi Bao FRSC (Chinese: 鲍晓毅) is a Chinese Canadian physicist, recognized for her contributions to the field of fiber optics. She is a professor at the University of Ottawa, where she holds the Canada Research Chair in Fiber Optics and Photonics. Bao was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Lethbridge; the citation for the honour called her "a world-renowned scholar in her field."
Biography
Bao completed bachelor's (1982) and master's degrees (1985) in optics from Nankai University in China.[1] She earned a PhD from the Anhui Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 1987.[1]
Bao was a professor at the University of New Brunswick from 1994 to 2000.[2] In 2000, she joined the Department of Physics at the University of Ottawa.[3] In 2003, she was named a Canada Research Chair in Fibre Optics and Physics.[2][4]
Bao's areas of research include the development of fiber sensors (e.g., for temperature, strain, pressure, refractive index, and vibration);[5] and the use of nonlinear optical effects (self-phase modulation, cross-phase modulation, four-wave mixing, and stimulated scattering) in fibers to design sensors, instrumentation, lasers, and devices.[6] Sensor systems using Xiaoyi's methods are being used in countries around the world.[7]
In 2015, Bao was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Lethbridge; the citation for the honour called her "a world-renowned scholar in her field."[3]
