Faculty Research
Photonics
Photonics at UTA’s Department of Electrical Engineering embodies a wide range of science and engineering topics stemming from solid state physics, theory/modeling of periodic lattices, photonic crystals, metasurfaces, to optical, optoelectronic, optofluidic devices such as lasers, sensors, nonlinear optics, quantum optics, and integrated chips and systems. The research is largely concentrated in the following three application areas: (A) Energy efficient integrated photonics; (B) Information processing and security, and (C) Optical sensing and imaging for biomedical and smart society applications.
