Grant: Canada Research Chairs
Carleton University
$200,000.00
Advanced Photonic Components
FY 2018-19
Summary
Dr. Albert is entering the third term of his Canada Research Chair in Advanced Photonic Components at Carleton University. He will focus on the development of improved sensor systems based on optical fibres. Novel light-matter interaction mechanisms will be studied by taking advantages of recent advances in laser technology and nanoscale thin film deposition processes. New high power ultrashort pulsed lasers used in conjunction with specially coated optical fibres will enable much improved detection thresholds for sensing. Sensors developed in partnership with private sector companies will find widespread use in environmental protection, built infrastructure monitoring, aerospace technology, and biomedical instrumentation.
