Funded Activity Summary

Functional micro-multiplexers based on nonlinear three-dimensional photonic crystal superprisms. The development of functional nonlinear micro-multiplexers is vital to on-chip applications in optical information processing, telecom and bio-sensing. The proposed project will enable both enormous improvements of device performance and the significant reduction in the cost and size of the associated infrastructures and eventually facilitate the next generation miniaturised all-optical networks. The success of the project will make essential contributions to the emerging photonics and nanotechnology, and strengthen Australia's international leading role in these fields. The improvement of device performance, the development of new IP, and the commercialisation of novel products will deliver major social and economic benefits to Australia.
