PHOTONICS and FIBER OPTICS PROJECTS
Opto-electronic materials and process control
Simulation and design of opto-electronic devices and processes
- A new approach to optical microscopy of sub-wavelength diffraction structures: shape reconstruction from ellipsometric back-focal-plane data.
- Fast electromagnetic scattering analysis using Battle-Lemarie wavelet based multiresolution time-domain method.
- Simulation of aerial image sensors, nanoparticle photoresist and liquid immersion lithography.
- Simulation of interaction of light in microcavities with semiconductor walls for novel opto-electronic device construction.
- Investigation of controlling Rydberg atom-like systems with applied fast electromagnetic signals, for altering ionization and stabilization.
- Design of fiber optic system for detecting and manipulating single molecular systems.

Automated Fiber Optic Processes
- Automated optical fiber preparation, including, stripping, cleaning, and cleaving of the fibers.
- Development of a fully automated fiber optic coil winder that reduces cycle times by an order of magnitude while increasing acceptance ratios.
- Design and fabrication of an optical circuit assembly system that automatically prepares, splices, re-coats, and tests the fiber.
- Automated fiber pigtailing machine that prepares the fiber, inserts it into a carrier strip, orients the polarization axis, and epoxies it in place.
- Equipment for the automated assembly of couplers.
- Fiber end shaping/production.
- Fiber array assembly systems.
