1. Research Interests
Currently in the final year of a PhD which focuses on the design, fabrication and characterisation of semiconductor photonic devices. Particular interests lie in developing innovative nano-scale devices for on-chip integration of microwave photonics. Applicable skills in cleanroom-based fabrication and optical characterisation has led to a successful PhD. Both learning and teaching throughout the PhD has stemmed a keen interest in furthering an academic career.
