Marcos Maestre presents his Final Degree Project on a system to control light pulses and measure slow and fast light
On Friday July 7th, Marcos Maestre, student of Telecommunications Engineering, has defended his Final Degree Project entitled «Control de Pulsos Ópticos en Fibra y Medida de Efectos de Luz Lenta y Luz Rápida en Interferómetros«.
In this work, an instrumental system and its control software has been developed in order to characterize electro-optical modulators and polarization interferometers based on birefringent fibers. Using this setup slow and fast light (SFL) effects have been demonstrated for optical pulses centered at 1550 nm.
The project, which has been supervised by Julia Arias and MarÃa del Mar Sánchez-López, has obtained the maximum qualification, with honours.
A related communication will be presented at OPTOEL2017 – the Spanish Meeting on Optoelectronics.
