Organisation profile
MQ Photonics is a Macquarie University Research Centre with 30 academic staff and postdocs and 25 research students (mostly PhD). The Centre has a substantial history of optics research in Australia. It emerged from the Centre for lasers and Applications (CLA: established in 1988) and, though based in Physics, enjoys a membership spanning several departments and research groups across the university.
Capabilities
Lasers and Photonics are a traditional strength of Macquarie Photonics. The earlier Centre for Lasers and Applications is a field of research in its own right and an underpinning capability for other research banners. Research activities under this Banner in MQ Photonics include
- Raman lasers and applications
- THz photonics
- Diamond: Raman lasers and optical-engineering
- Mid IR and high power fibre lasers
- Novel waveguide lasers
- Topological beams
- Tunable ultraviolet lasers
- Optical trapping and levitation
- Laser microfabrication
Fingerprint
Collaborations and top research areas from the last five years
