Optics and Lasers

Wireless and fiber optics group

Our research team conducts wireless and fiber-optics research from the visible to the mid-infrared wavelengths. We focus on three main communication topics: fiber-optic communication, visible light communication and optical camera communication. Furthermore, we combine fiber optics with microwaves and antennas as part of the framework of microwave photonics. We also study free-space optics, develop fiber-optic sensors and work with state-of-the-art hollow-core optical fibers. Recently, we also started research into quantum communication (quantum key distribution).
