  Optical Trapping Lab

  Hollow-core fibers are changing the world faster than we realize. Our laboratory specializes in optical trapping and hollow-core fiber technologies, enabling the control of particles at the nano- and micro-scale as well as highly sensitive measurements. Our research spans from stable optical tweezers that make particles levitate to state-of-the-art hollow-core fibers for sensor optics. The […]Hollow-core fibers are changing the world faster than we realize.

  Fiber-Bragg-Grating Fabrication Lab

  At LHFT, we operate a dedicated fiber Bragg grating (FBG) inscription station based on the scanning phase‑mask technique. The light source is a KrF excimer laser (Coherent Bragg‑Star Industrial, 248 nm, 1 kHz, 10 mJ), providing stable UV exposure for high‑quality grating fabrication in photosensitive optical fibers (SSMF, PM fibers, or specialty fibers). For fibers […]At LHFT, we operate a dedicated fiber Bragg grating (FBG) inscription station based on the scanning phase‑mask technique.
