The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and the DTU Fotonik Department of Photonics Engineering have collaborated to design a new multicolor femtosecond fiber laser. The laser will be specifically developed for biophotonics applications and will be based on UIUC and DTU Fotonik’s original technologies.
A scientist, named Haohua Tu, from UIUC’s Biophotonics Imaging Laboratory has started a three-month research project at DTU Fotonik. Biophotonics and DTU Fotonik Terahertz Technologies will support the scientist in the laser project.
Biophotonics group comprises associate professors namely Jesper Lægsgaard and Dmitry Turchinovich, and a PhD student named Xiaomin Liu. The head of Biophotonics Imaging Laboratory and a professor, Stephen A. Boppart will also participate in the laser development project.
