Tuning the multiplexing of optical angular momentum with graphene photonics

该项目旨在开发一种概念上的新型石墨烯纳米器件，该器件允许调整从近红外到中红外波长区域的光学角动量的多路复用。该项目的创新之处在于采用尖端的硅上石墨烯纳米工程技术，设计了世界上第一个用于片上集成的可调谐光角动量多路复用器。该项目将带来超高容量芯片级设备的新视野，可以实现包括无线光通信在内的新应用，从而加速新兴的基于lifi的大数据技术平台的实现。

This project aims to develop a conceptually new graphene nano-device that allows for tuning the multiplexing of optical angular momentum from the near-infrared to mid-infrared wavelength regions. The innovation of this project is nano-engineering of the cutting-edge graphene-on-silicon technology in designing the world-first tunable optical-angular-momentum multiplexer for on-chip integration. This project will result in a new horizon of ultra-high-capacity chip-scale devices which can enable the new applications including wireless optical communications and thus accelerate the realisation of the emerging LiFi-based big data technology platform.
