Microwave Laboratory

The Microwave Research Lab hosts Research Fellows, Postdoctoral Fellows, Research Engineers, PhD students, MSc students and final year project students for the Optical, Infrared, Microwave & Radio Frequency Research team.

Research Activities

Lab research activities broadly cover both advanced computational methods to model fundamental light-matter interaction and the novel experimental exploration of electromagnetic wave technologies. The research interests focused on but not limited to

  • Developing the novel nanophotonic and optoelectronic devices via interfacial engineering of low-dimensional nanomaterials and nanostructured photonic platform.
  • The fundamental studies of advanced electromagnetic metamaterials and metasurfaces for practical technologies including next-generation metaantenna, metalens imaging, holography and others.
  • Theory, modeling, algorithm and computation of electromagnetic inverse problems and computational imaging.  The advanced computation techniques such as machine learning (ML) are applied to solve inverse problems, which emphasizes on drawing insights from physics and avoids a black-box way of using ML.
  • Developing innovative solutions for biomedical applications and wireless communications.
  • Simulation and design of innovative phased array and beamforming systems, as well as constituent subsystems and microwave components, including integrated circuits.

Lab Facilities

The lab has a variety of softwares such as FDTD, ADS, ANSYS HFSS, Dassault Systemes CST and MatLab. It also houses test equipment including signal generator, spectrum analyzer, wire bonder and general-purpose test equipment to support research projects and FYP projects measurement.
