Funded Activity Summary

Slow light in nanostructured materials. This project will introduce and demonstrate novel concepts for dynamically controlling the speed of light and manipulating optical pulses in specially designed nanoscale structures, making an essential step towards the creation of all-optical devices performing fast switching and processing of optical signals. These developments underpin the next generation of high-performance networks, promising to revolutionize global communications. This project will keep Australia at the forefront of international research and provide training of students on breakthrough applications of photonics and nanotechnology, contributing to the uptake of frontier technologies by Australian industries for successful operation in a competitive global environment.
