With the fast development of nanotechnology and material science, photonic chips are playing an essential role in modern scientific research. On the one hand, various remarkable photonic integrated circuits are developing to reduce the complexity and cost of conventional optical systems. On the other hand, novel optoelectronic materials and nanophotonic structures have been extensively proposed for precisely manipulating electromagnetic fields and significantly enhancing light-matter interactions on a chip.
Photonic Chip Laboratory aims to develop revolutionary photonic integrated circuits and nanophotonic devices for solving crucial issues in information science, biochemistry, and environmental safety while fostering students to gain patriotism, innovative thinking, scientific literacy, and leadership. Specifically, we focus on light generation, biochemical sensing, photodetection, and spectroscopic computation for novel on-chip applications. Our research interests include integrated optics, nanophotonics, nanomaterials, fiber optics, and spectroscopy. By combining multidisciplinary knowledge and techniques, we aim to overcome challenges in our country and improve the quality of human life.
