Graduation Day: Ruqaiya and Nawal

Congratulations to group PhD students Dr Ruqaiya Al-Abri and Dr Nawal Alamairi! Both move on to lectureship positions at the University of Technology and Applied Sciences, Oman.

Congratuations Ruqaiya!

Congratulations to group PhD student Ruqaiya Al-Abri for completing her PhD viva on "Correlative Optoelectronic Measurements for Optimization of Semiconductor Nanolasers". The examiners were Jack Alexander-Weber (University of Cambridge Physics) and David Binks.

Conference Poster

Poster Presented at E-MRS

Group PhD student Ruqaiya Al-Abri presented a poster on her recent publication in Wiley Small at E-MRS in Strasbourg, France.

New Publication: Sub-Picosecond Carrier Dynamics Explored using Automated High-Throughput Studies of Doping Inhomogeneity within a Bayesian Framework

Nano-materials are hard to precisely manufacture. By measuring >10k, we use their disorder to understand their performance in a paper in Small.

New Publication: Holistic Nanowire Laser Characterization as a Route to Optimal Design

Group postdoc Stephen Church has just had a paper accepted into Advanced Optical Materials. In this work, he reports the study of thousands of individual nanowire lasers, using advanced statistical methods to identify a route to optimization. Photonic integrated circuitry is rapidly emerging as an alternative to electronics for specialist

Conference Presentation: Rank Prize Symposium in Nanowire Photonics

The group was well represented at the Rank Prize symposium in Grasmere. The high-throughput and automation session included invited talks from Patrick, Stephen Church and Ruqaiya Al-Abri.

Conference Talk

Conference Presentation: UK Semiconductors

Group postdoc Stephen Church presented a talk entitled “Disentangling Gain, Distributed Losses and End-Facet Losses in Freestanding Nanowire Lasers using Automated High-Throughput Micro-Spectroscopy” at UK Semiconductors in Sheffield, UK. This collaborative work between Manchester and colleagues in Zhejiang and University College London reported a multimodal correlative approach to studying nanolasers.

New Paper: Optical Characterisation of Nanowire Lasers

Group postdoc Stephen Church and PhD student Ruqaiya Al-Abri collaborated with Dhruv Saxena at Imperial College London to produce a review of methods to characterise nanowire lasers. This article, forming part of a celebration issue for the birthday of colleague Prof. Chennupati Jagadish (at the Australian National University) seeks to

Conference Talk

Conference Presentation: ICPS 2022, Sydney

Patrick gave a talk at ICPS Sydney, entitled “Hot-carrier dynamics in Zn-doped GaAs nanowires at sub-picosecond timescales via high-throughput spectroscopy“. This work, in collaboration with Martin Magnusson and colleagues at Lund University was led by group PhD student Ruqaiya Al-Abri.

New Paper: Holistic Determination of Optoelectronic Properties using High-Throughput Spectroscopy of Surface-Guided CsPbBr3 Nanowires

Optoelectronic materials form the building blocks of crucial components of modern technology, including solar cells, CCDs, lasers and LEDs. The past decade has seen significant developments in materials science that enable the shrinking of these materials to the nano-scale. These advancements have also created entirely new technologies based around light

New Review : Measuring, controlling and exploiting heterogeneity in optoelectronic nanowires

Group PhD students Ruqaiya Al-Abri and Hoyeon Choi have written an invited review article for JPhys Photonics, published today. Lead author Ruqaiya Al-Abri describes this work: Among the one-dimensional structures, semiconductor nanowires have attracted great attention; from the growth process to the production of functional devices they have been widely

Nawal Al-Amairi

Welcome to Ruqaiya and Nawal!

The group welcomes Ruqaiya and Nawal as two new PhD students working in the group. Ruqaiya will be working on nanolasers for on-chip photonics using both nanowires and nanoshapes developed by collaborators in UCL, ANU and China. Nawal will be working on ultrafast photodetectors based on 2D materials with collaborators
