The Photonic Device Dynamics Research Group at Cork Institute of Technology aims to advance the understanding of the dynamics of semiconductor materials and devices from both applied and fundamental viewpoints. The group is housed in well-equipped laboratories at the Tyndall National Institute, with a broad range of optics and electronics test and measurement equipment. Recent research has focused on quantum dot systems, including:

• Ultra-fast pump-probe spectroscopy
• Optical injection and feedback in semiconductor lasers
• Monolithic mode-locked lasers
•  Dynamics of antimonide-based quantum dots.
