Collaborating research institutes, centres and groups

Computational Nonlinear Optics

We develop theoretical models and computer simulations for a wide range of photonics systems, such as optical fibres, integrated waveguides, and quantum technology.

Nanophotonics Group

We perform fundamental optical physics and materials research. This is critical for the discovery and development of new and improved optoelectronic technologies.
