Revolutionizing Laser Technology through Multicore Fibre Innovation

Supervisory Team: Dr Yongmin Jung and Dr Sijing Liang. Project description. Embark on a transformative journey at the forefront of laser technology with our ground-breaking PhD opportunity, titled “Revolutionizing laser technology through multicore fibre innovation”. Read more

Novel Phase Change Materials for Neuromorphic Applications

Supervisory Team: Ioannis Zeimpekis, Fred Gardes . Project description. In collaboration with a large EU consortium, we work to create a reprogrammable neuromorphic photonic platform for a variety of applications from telecommunications to biosensing. Read more

Silicon Photonic Memories

Supervisory Team: Frederic Gardes, Thalia Dominguez Bucio . Project description. Applications are invited for a PhD studentship to be undertaken within the silicon photonics group at the University of Southampton. Read more

Monolithic integration of III-V Lasers on Silicon

Supervisory Team: Frederic Gardes, Thalia Dominguez Bucio, Ilias Skandalos . Project description. Applications are invited for multiple PhD studentships to be undertaken within the silicon photonics group at the University of Southampton. Read more

Mid-infrared hollow-core fibre and laser development for environmental monitoring, non-invasive surgery and advanced manufacturing

In this project we will develop hollow-core optical fibres (HCFs) for mid-infrared laser delivery. HCFs offer a radically new solution for laser delivery as they guide light in a gas-filled core, instead of the glass in conventional optical fibres. Read more
