Programmable Photonics

Image credit: J. Carolan

Universal optical processors are photonic devices that can be reprogrammed to implement a variety of transformations, all on a single chip. Such programable photonics may enable breakthroughs in quantum computing, artificial intelligence, imaging and signals processing. I’ve been developing these systems in a host of material platforms, alongside developing novel packaging, control and characterization techniques.
