Thanks to Arturo for some illustrative laser path photos in the newly set-up lab space
Welcome to MPhys students!
Welcome to Max Kahan, Pedro Trula, Michael Thorpe and Tom Thirlwell who join the group as MPhys students.
Max and Pedro will work on the application of machine learning approaches to studying large scale spectroscopic and imaging data produced by our nanowire characterisation tool.
Michael and Tom will work on
Welcome to Pawita!
A welcome to Pawita Boonrat, who joins the group for a PhD. Pawita will be primarily supervised by Mark Dickinson and is co-supervised by Patrick. Her project is co-sponsored by Lynton Lasers, and will focus on the development of lasers for conservation purposes.
Congratulations to Bryce!
Bryce has passed his PhD viva with just minor changes. Congratulations to Bryce on his work!
New Publication - Large-scale statistics for threshold optimization of optically pumped nanowire lasers
Arturo’s recent work has been published in Nano Letters [at http://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.nanolett.7b01725 ]. This work was done in collaboration with the group of Professor Chennupati Jagadish at the Australian National University.
In this paper, we describe how automated and high-speed spectroscopy can

Seminar at the University of Jena
Patrick gave the Solid-State Physics seminar at the University of Jena on Friday 16th June, on the topic of “Statistical Study of Disorder for Nanowire Optimization” at the invitation of Prof Carsten Ronning and Dr Robert Röder.
Arturo speaks at Nanowire week 2017
Arturo spoke at Nanowire week 2017 in Lund, Sweden today. In his first talk at an international conference, he presented his recent work on “Large-scale statistics for threshold optimization of optically pumped nanowire lasers” to a large audience of nanowire growth and characterisation experts from around the world.
