Laboratory for Photonic Materials and Characterization
LaboratoryThe Laboratory of Photonic Materials and Characterization (LPMAT) at EPFL focuses on researching novel materials and enabling technologies for integrated optics, with a current emphasis on thin films of oxide optical materials. They work on the fabrication and patterning processes of materials like LiNbO3 and BaTiO3 for applications in on-chip optical communications. Additionally, LPMAT is actively involved in laser processing research, aiming to understand light-material interactions and energy flow dynamics for applications in Industry 4.0 and IoT. Their expertise includes high vacuum chemical vapor deposition, electro-optical materials development, and laser sintering processes for ceramic materials.
