The lab uses nanostructures to control light at will.

AboutAbout the lab
Controlling light to its ultimate limits with nanostructures
The Integrated Physics and Information Engineering Lab pursues the ultimate control and manipulation of both classical and quantum light using photonic nanostructures.
By fusing information-engineering approaches with approaches based on physical laws, the lab seeks to open up new research areas.
Key terms
- Photonic crystal
- An artificial crystal with a periodic structure on the scale of the wavelength of light, which allows the propagation of light to be controlled freely
- Optical nanocavity
- A structure that confines and stores light in a tiny, nanometer-sized space
- Thermal radiation
- Light (electromagnetic waves) emitted by an object according to its temperature
ResearchResearch themes
The lab explores new optical, electronic, and quantum phenomena in ultrafine structures, aiming to realize new quantum functional devices and optoelectronic functional devices based on them.
*Illustrative imageNew light and quantum phenomena in ultrafine structures
The lab explores new optical, electronic, and quantum phenomena in ultrafine structures and aims to realize new devices. It takes a comprehensive approach, from simulation on large-scale computers to nanostructure fabrication, characterization of material properties, and device fabrication.
*Illustrative imageOptical nanocavities and photonic-electronic integrated circuits
The lab studies ultra-low-loss optical nanocavities using photonic crystals, quantum light-emitting devices, photonic-electronic integrated circuits, control of thermal radiation, and automated optimization design using machine learning.
*Illustrative imageBright, large-area semiconductor lasers
The lab develops large-area, high-brightness semiconductor lasers using photonic crystals, and studies the design of non-Hermitian photonic bands and their application to devices.
