Profile
I enrolled into the Ph.D programme in June 2006 with the Photonics Research Group at Aston University, I have been investigating the design and fabrication of novel fibre grating devices and their applications in fibre laser systems and sensor devices. To date, I have been working as a research associate for the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) project which develops fibre optic sensor and laser demonstrators to provide technical consultancy to the local businesses.
