Speaker
Description
This talk presents recent progress in hybrid fibers with integrated functional materials such as diamond particles, 2D materials, high-index thin films or silk to create new intrinsic fiber properties for sensing and nonlinear photonics applications.
Short bio:
Heike Ebendorff-Heidepriem received the Ph.D. degree from the University of Jena, Germany, in 1994. Since 2005, she has been with the University of Adelaide, Australia. She currently leads the Fibres and Photonics Materials Research Group.
