The Photonics Group is composed of eight professors whose diverse research interests range from theoretical studies to photonics technology. The group’s main research endeavours encompass fibre-optic communication systems and components, fully optical networks, optoelectronic device modelling, design, fabrication, and characterization, photonic crystals and photonic bandgaps, non-linear optics, ultrafast optical phenomena and devices, nanofabrication processes, photonic applications in laser processing, and high-efficiency solar cells.
