Photonics Laboratory at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology is investigating semiconductor lasers and photonic integrated circuits for wide applications optical communications, solid-state lighting and sensors. KAUST and Photonics Lab are well equipped with necessary facilities for semiconductor material growth such as molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), nano-fabrication, and photonic and optoelectronic materials and device characterizations.
Manipulating and Reconfiguring Propagation of Light
We investigate on novel structures to trap, confine, and manipulate the propagation of light, taking from transformation optics and the inverse scattering problem we search for suitable refractive index mappings to achieve light trapping, beam conversion, secon harmonic generation, etc.
