Welcome to the Optics and Photonics Research Group at the University of Colorado-Boulder. I invite you to explore the group's activities in laser development and applications. The group is led by Juliet Gopinath, an Assistant Professor in the Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering Department and the Physics Department at the University of Colorado-Boulder.

Specific interests include ultrafast and high power lasers, mid-infrared sources, spectroscopy of semiconductors and other new materials, semiconductor lasers, and microfluidics. Applications of the technology include sensors, communications, lidar, medical imaging and surgery, water purification, and environmental monitoring. The research is interdisciplinary, spanning several core areas of optics and photonics, solid-state devices and nanotechnology.

Research positions for undergraduate students, graduate students and post-doctoral researchers are available. Boulder is a fantastic place to live and the University of Colorado offers exceptional educational opportunities! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested.
