Nature Paper on Titanium:sapphire laser on chip

The paper is co-authored by prof. Kasper Van Gasse while at the Nanoscale and Quantum Photonics Lab of prof. Jelena Vuckovic at Stanford University.
Prof. Van Gasse will continue his work on the development of Solid-state lasers on chip for metrology and quantum systems at UGent-imec with support of an ERC Starting Grant ‘LASIQ’.

The paper, 'Titanium integrated lasers and amplifiers,' showcases a major advancement in photonic laser integration achieved in the Vuckovic lab at Stanford University.

By developing a monocrystalline titanium-doped sapphire (Ti) platform, a dramatic step towards democratizing high-performance titanium-sapphire lasers with potential applications in optical frequency combs, two-photon microscopy, and quantum optics was taken.
