Funded Activity Summary

Studies of near-field optical emission from waveguides and photonic crystals. Advanced optical materials and photonic devices require microscopic feature sizes close to the wavelength of light, challenging the limits of conventional fabrication and characterisation techniques (often developed in parallel). With extensive expertise in near-field optical modelling, Dr Rahmani will target specific problems associated with the characterisation of actual photonic devices. This will improve device design and fabrication, enabling the development of more efficient, compact lasers and other devices. Economic and social benefits are expected from resulting improvements in optical processing, and the potential for new jobs and industries in this field.
