Quantum optics in room temperature quantum dot ensembles
Ultra fast optical excitations drive active quantum dot ensembles into the quantum coherent regime leading to many quantum optic phenomena shedding light on the behavior of sources on the sub ps time scale.

Read MoreUltra high speed VCSELs for data center applications (collaboration with Meir Orenstein)
Data center requirements have reached levels of hundreds of Gbit/s – rates that no conventional devices can offer. New structures based on coherently coupled devices as well as the use of new materials will lead to the desired speeds. This project includes also new electro optic techniques to characterize such fast devices. Research group: Eisenstein…

Different semiconductor optical amplifiers are developed aimed at compensating losses in photonic circuits. Research group: Eisenstein Group (PI: Gadi Eisenstein)Contact: gad@technion.ac.ilGroup website: https://gad.net.technion.ac.il/
Read MoreCryogenic photonics (collaboration with Meir Orenstein)
Cryogenic photonics aims at operating lasers, modulators and detectors at temperatures ranging from 4 K to 100 K. This requires completely new designs based on new device physics. The aim is to improve significantly the efficiency and energy consumption of optical links in data centers.

Read MoreCan we see through thick tissue layers without cutting the subject?
We are developing advanced algorithms for imaging through scattering tissue. Seeing inside tissue is one of the hardest barriers in biomedical research and in medical imaging, mostly because cells inside the tissue aberrate and scatter the light waves passing through it. Even after propagating through tissue layers as thin as a few dozen micrometers, the…
