This project will make onceptual advances in the areas of signal processing and communication. A major benefit of this project will be its direct applications to digital industry - perhaps the major electrical industry of our era. The project will also aim to build a world class research activity at the University of New South Wales to focus attention on low-cost signal processing and communication, increase capacity for contract research, enhance nternational collaboration with leading researchers in the area, and produce quality PhD graduates in the field of signal processing and communication.Read moreRead less

The current success of the electronics industry rests on pillars made from the low cost, high performance and flexibility of silicon compounds. Silicon-based optics provides a new platform for the monolithic integration of optics and electronics. In this project, a multi-disciplinary team consisting of pioneers of nonlinear optics and siliconized photonics build a next-generation broadband silicon optical amplifier which can open the door to a new low-power, wide-bandwidth, high-speed and ultra-small optoelectronic devices. The technological advances arising from this project will provide Australia with critical capabilities for future commercial ventures and strengthen Australia's stake in the multi-trillion dollar semiconductor industry.Read moreRead less
