The Photonics Laboratory develops and evaluates high precision optical fiber sensors that are especially adapted to the demands in medicine, industry and research.
- Lectures in optoelectronics and fiber optic technology in the Bachelor and Master programs.
- Research activities in optical fiber sensing based on fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs):
- High-temperature annealing, calibration and sensing
- Strain measurements of cartilage tissue
- Hydrogen detection with Palladium-coated FBGs
- Fiber-optic smart casts with embedded FBG sensors
- Degree theses (Bachelor and Master) and doctoral theses (cooperative doctorate) in the field of fiber sensing.
- Commissioned research for industrial partners
