Collaborating research institutes, centres and groups

Nanophotonics Group

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

Nonlinear Semiconductor Photonics

We explore the development and optimization of new semiconductor material platforms for application in nonlinear photonics.
