Advanced Bandgap-Engineered Two-Dimensional Materials for Photonics Device Applications

Manchester Metropolitan University
Faculty of Science and Engineering

Dr KK Chow

Applications accepted all year round

Reference Number. KKC-2018-PhD-1. Project Summary. Advanced two-dimensional materials including MoS2, MoSe2, and h-BCN has recently gain much importance in material and photonics research owing to their capabilities of tuning their electronic bandgap hence optical absorption spectra.

Nonlinear optics using Epsilon-near-zero materials

University of St Andrews
School of Physics and Astronomy

Dr S Schulz

Applications accepted all year round

In Epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) [1] materials, for a certain spectral region, the electric permittivity, epsilon, is below 1, i.e. smaller than that of free space/air.
