Research Degree Supervisor

About me

In 2015 David was appointed Professor of Laser Engineering at the University of South Australia. Prior to this he was an Assoc. Professor at the University of Adelaide for 5 years.

At UniSA he is establishing the 'Laser Physics and Photonics Devices Laboratories'. The laboratories will focus on developing short to mid-infrared fibre lasers based on silica and germanate; photonic devices; development of planar waveguide lasers; and advanced photonic manufacturing.

He completed a Ph.D. in experimental laser physics from Macquarie University (1997), and spent 3 years as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Rice University developing mid-infrared spectroscopic sensors for trace gas sensing. In 2000, he joined the Australian Defence Science and... Read more
