Optical devices on the scale of only billionths of a meter impel photonic revolution in information technologies. The extraordinary sensitivity and tunability of light confined on nano-scale is caused by the yet unexplored and poorly understood world of tiniest flows of energy, the optical vortices. In this project we will learn to manipulate optical vortices with the light itself, introducing original concepts for intelligent engineering of nano-elements of a photonic chip. This project will deliver underpinning knowledge, foremost practical expertise, and the prominent training of young researchers to secure Australia's international leadership in the rapidly growing and competitive field of nanophotonics.

十亿分之一米量级的光学器件推动了信息技术的光子革命。光在纳米尺度上的非凡灵敏度和可调性是由尚未探索和了解甚少的最微小的能量流世界--光学涡旋--引起的。在这个项目中，我们将学习操纵光本身的光涡旋，介绍光子芯片的纳米元件的智能工程的原始概念。该项目将提供基础知识，最重要的实用专业知识，以及对年轻研究人员的突出培训，以确保澳大利亚在快速增长和竞争激烈的纳米光子学领域的国际领导地位。
