Distributed Optical Fibre Sensing

We design and develop novel optical fibre sensors capable of measuring temperature, strain, and vibration at thousands of points using a single strand of optical fibre.

Optical Fibre Sensors and Devices

Our group develops a variety of innovative optical fibre devices and sensors.
