DEPARTMENT DETAILS
Department of Guided-wave Photonics
Research is focused on theoretical and experimental study
of optical waveguides mainly for applications in optical
communications and sensors. It comprises research of both linear
and nonlinear optical properties of silica optical fibres, active
fibres doped by rare-earth ions for fibre amplifiers and lasers
employing stimulated emission as well as stimulated Raman scattering,
and microstructure fibres. Research in Integrated Optics is
directed toward theoretical analysis and experimental
characterisation of planar guided-wave structures
and subsystems, photonic crystal waveguides
and microresonator-based devices. Research teams of the Department
of Guided-Wave Photonics tightly collaborate with the Department
of Optical Sensors on theoretical analysis
and experimental characterization of waveguide based sensor
structures and devices.
