Photonics and Semiconductor Nanophysics
We explore the novel physics and applications emerging from the interaction of light with nanoscale matter.
Mastering light at the nanoscale
The emission and absorption of light is the physical basis of lasers, LEDs, solar cells and photodetectors, which have become crucial parts of our daily life. By controlling these processes at a subwavelength scale, we can significantly improve the performance of these photonic devices and develop completely new ones. The Photonics and Semiconductor Nanophysics group investigates the physics of (nano-)photonic structures and materials in five distinct but related research lines, mostly centered around semiconductors, for applications ranging from optical communications to sensing and energy conversion.

Meet some of our Researchers
Casimir Institute
Chips and systems are the invisible infrastructure of modern life, powering AI, enabling green technologies, advancing healthcare, and driving digital transformation. The catalyzes innovation across disciplines by bringing together 700 researchers under one roof, and delivering tangible solutions for a sustainable digital information society. Located in the heart of Europe鈥檚 Brainport region, we are establishing the Chips and Systems University of Europe. Our mission is to secure Europe鈥檚 technological sovereignty by accelerating innovation in chip technologies and high-tech systems, aligned with the and the .
Inspired by Hendrik Casimir鈥檚 science-technology spiral, we embrace the reciprocal relationship between fundamental research and technological advancement. Our approach focused on future chips and high-tech systems, intertwines four key domains - design and integration, materials and processes, equipment and components, and foundational technologies into a seamless innovation engine. We deliver sustainable, high-impact innovations and develop the technologies and talent that shape the future of chips and high-tech systems worldwide.
Startups
Facilities
The NanoLabTUe offers a unique combination of equipment for developing optical chips and other applications based on compound semiconductor technology.
The cleanroom at the NanoLabTUe offers a combination of equipment that is available nowhere else in the academic world. Here, optical chips based on semiconductive indium phosphide can be fabricated, from substrate right through to the end product.
The NanoLabTUe is an open-access research laboratory, in which both 黑料福利网 and other research centers and industrial parties conduct research. This approach ensures that insights and understanding acquired through fundamental research quickly find their way into industry.
