Polymer Optical Sensing System Innovation Benefits Leadership Education (POSSIBLE)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

Project POSSIBLE seeks to draw on recent developments in optical fibre sensors to tackle two important industrial sensing problems: the provision of an all optical fuel gauging system for aircraft and the development of simple, highly sensitive acoustic and vibration sensors for geophysical surveying and surveillance. Importantly, the project will form an excellent stage on which to prepare the Ma ...

High Brightness COnical REfraction Lasers (HICORE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

A fundamental property of lasers is the ability to propagate and be focused to very small spots with little divergence, termed beam quality. The ability to achieve high power low divergence operation (high brightness) is of paramount importance for many applications, both existing and potential, of laser devices. Effective ways to scale output power without compromising beam quality are limited ...
