Summary
Direct write - microphotonics fabrication facility. Direct write-microfabrication, where an ultrafast laser is focussed to a small, intense spot and translated under computer control with respect to a target sample, has emerged as a significant enabling technology creating new opportunities in microphotonics. The proposed facility will enable researchers to modify the internal properties of glass blocks and write 'optical wires' (or waveguides).

Direct write-microfabrication, where an ultrafast laser is focussed to a small, intense spot and translated under computer control with respect to a target sample, has emerged as a significant enabling technology creating new opportunities in microphotonics. The proposed facility will enable researchers to modify the internal properties of glass blocks and write 'optical wires' (or waveguides). By combining waveguides with other laser written functional components researchers will develop devices capable of processing optical information. Outcomes will include demonstrations of compact lasers and slow light generation.Read moreRead less
Centre for Ultrahigh-bandwidth Devices for Optical Systems. The Centre, through a ground-breaking research program, will in the next five years invent and develop a set of revolutionary optical devices and will integrate these devices onto a photonic chip, for the use in the next generation of ultra-high bandwidth optical telecommunications systems. These systems will dramatically improve online services to the Australian community in key areas such as health, education and business connectivity ....Centre for Ultrahigh-bandwidth Devices for Optical Systems.
