Non-Linear Optical Materials & Devices

Research to understand optical materials capable of fast switching, or for tuneable filters, optical limiters and those showing non-linearities in liquid crystals, polymers and polar organic materials.
Also includes evaluations of NLOs for personnel protection systems.
Also includes studies of non-linear optical characteristics and susceptibility, harmonic generations, and devices for applications in waveguides and tuneable lasers.
