We are at the forefront of the development of ultralow-noise optical frequency comb sources and their innovative timing applications spanning from synchronizing ultrafast quantum science and radio astronomy facilities through chip-scale microwave photonic systems to ultrafast 3D dynamics imaging.
Not only have our recent research findings been published in high-impact journals such as Nature Photonics, Nature Communications, Science Advances, Light: Science & Applications, and Optica, but they have also been actively applied in high-tech industries such as Quantum Technology (on-chip frequency synthesizers for portable quantum time sensors and timing for quantum links), ICT & AI (on-chip photonic clock distribution and data converters), Defense (photonics-based radars), and Semiconductor Manufacturing (sensing and imaging for semiconductor device manufacturing processes). Thanks to the multidisciplinary nature of our research, we also enjoy a wide range of domestic and international collaboration opportunities with academia, national labs, and industries.
