“Understanding light to reveal nature and shape new technology”
Welcome to the Nonlinear & Quantum Optics Research Group in the Department of Physics at the beautiful Coral Gables campus of the University of Miami.
Our research is dedicated to unraveling the intricate dynamics of light and its interactions with matter — to reveal nature and shape new technology.
We explore both classical and quantum regimes, investigating linear and nonlinear phenomena in complex photonic systems.
Our focus includes Hermitian and non-Hermitian systems such as nonlinear multimode and multicore fibers, coupled optical waveguides and resonator arrays, silica and III–V semiconductors, photorefractive and liquid-crystal media, nanocolloids, polymer-based systems, and photonic topological insulators.
We are always looking for outstanding science-driven graduate/undergraduate students and postdocs - more information here
