Optical and electrical characteristics of erbium doped solids for quantum technology applications (2023)
Thesis

This thesis explores the potential of Er:Si for quantum technology applications. The
unique optical transitions of erbium in the 1.5 μm region make it a suitable candidate
for both telecommunication and silicon photonics applications and the proper... Read More about Optical and electrical characteristics of erbium doped solids for quantum technology applications.

Modified chalcogenide glasses for optical device applications (2007)
Thesis
Hughes, M. (in press). Modified chalcogenide glasses for optical device applications. (Thesis). University of Southampton

This thesis focuses on two different, but complementary, aspects of the modification of
gallium lanthanum sulphide (GLS) glasses. Firstly the addition of transition metal ions
as dopants is examined and their potential for use as active optical mat... Read More about Modified chalcogenide glasses for optical device applications.
