      Research Intern

      I conducted my Masters research project as a technical intern at NTT basic research laboratories. The project was heavily based in theoretical and Computational photonics and involved the study of exceptional points in photonic crystals. This project heavily contributed to the following paper: https://journals.aps.org/pra/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevA.105.013523

      My PhD was heavily focussed on theoretical, computational, and experimental, topological photonics. Specifically, I was applying topological design principles to specialty optical fibre in order to create topological photonic crystal fibre.We published work on the world's first fabricated topological optical fibre: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.add3522Designed a single-shot measurement for photonic topological invariants: https://journals.aps.org/prresearch/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevResearch.6.L022010Built a scalable Chern insulator in our fibre platform: Show less
