Description
The general topic of this line is the study of the light-matter non-linear interaction and its consequences and potential for applications in emerging photonics technologies.
We study the complex dynamics and the generation of non homogeneous spatial light distributions (pattern formation) in photonic sources such as semiconductor lasers and in optical cavities filled with nonlinear media.
Experimental studies include the utilization of complex laser dynamics for encrypted communication, key exchange, generation of random bit sequences and information processing.
