Progress in optics and photonics has revolutionized long-distance communications, imaging, sensing and spectroscopy over the past few decades. Our lab focuses on harnessing the beneficial properties of light particles - photons - for next-generation technologies. We build chips that fit on the tip of a finger, with micro- and nano-sized patterns etched into them, and yet can deliver performance and bandwidth comparable to meters or kilometers of traditional optical platforms. The tight confinement of light into nano/micro-devices leads to strong light-matter interaction, allowing us to explore quantum and nonlinear phenomena in these systems. Examples of such next-generation technologies include the quantum internet, LiDAR, quantum-enhanced sensing and metrology, ultrafast signal processing and quantum simulation. Beyond applications in disruptive technologies, our team is interested in fundamental studies of light-matter interaction, by exploring high-dimensional physics and..
