Jasper de Graaf

Jasper de Graaf is a Doctoral Candidate at the Photonic Integration group in the Electrical Engineering department of the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). Using the inhouse state of the art photonic integrated technology, a large range of new devices and systems can be realized with a wide range of applications in healthcare, high-speed communications, industrial sensors and many more. In particular, Jasper will be using this technology to explore the possibilities of Terahertz generation using Integrated Photonics, enabling a whole new range of frequencies for sensing and high-speed communication. He will focus on the complete process of a photonic integrated circuit, starting from device design and circuit design, followed by cleanroom fabrication and characterization in the measurement lab.

Using the fascinating & novel world of Photonic Integration, I want to explore the endless possibilities of interesting applications in sensing and high-tech communications.
