Personal profile

Research interests

I am an optical physicist and a microstructured fibre fabricator. I am interested in fibre optics in general: this interest spans linear and nonlinear optics, and classical and quantum applications. Following my PhD at the University of Bath specialising in designing and fabricating hollow-core fibres, I did a postdoc in ultrafast optics at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, where I focussed on building ultrafast fibre lasers for driving nonlinear optical processes in gas-filled hollow-core fibres. My current role is in quantum optics, where I am building a fibre-integrated quantum light source using bespoke microstructured photonic crystal fibre.
