Many quantum systems use laser light to manipulate the quantum properties of matter. Today, these lasers themselves are very much larger (half a metre - shoebox sized) than the quantum systems they control (few millimetres - grain of rice sized). This project is aimed at investigating the feasibility of designing compact, millimetre sized semiconductor la...

The manufacture of packaged photonic products requires the micron-scale accurate positioning of optical components within the package. This study will explore the incorporation of novel minature sensors and actuators into photonic packages to achieve controllable movements of optical parts for high performance operation.

The internet has transformed the way we do business, entertainment, social interactions and lifestyle. All of these applications are underpinned by an advanced optical network that can transmit data over a global scale. However, in order to cope with new applications, higher bandwidths per user and a growing number of users, this network needs new technol...
