CUDOS - the Centre for Ultrahigh bandwidth Devices for Optical Systems is an Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence.
It is a reseach consortium between 6 groups at 5 Australian Universities:
The University of Sydney, Australian National University, Macquarie University, Swinburne University of Technology and University of Technology, Sydney
The CUDOS research program has two central themes: Microphotonics micro-photonics and nonlinear photonics. The goal of achieving ultrahigh-speed all-optical signal processing on a single Photonic_integrated_circuit photonic chip is addressed by combining these two themes to develop micron-scale photonic components incorporating nonlinear photonics processes. These all-optical signal processors will be the key enabling technology for the next generation of ultrahigh bandwidth optical communication systems.
The Centre has active research programs in photonic circuitry, microstructured Optical_fiber optical fibres, 2D and 3D Photonic_crystal photonic crystals and photonic devices and applications. It has strong programs in nonlinear optical theory, modeling and simulation. Experimental programs include the fabrication of micro-structured guided-wave optical devices and studies of nonlinear optical effects in periodic guided wave geometries. It has a comprehensive set of test and measurement capabilities, including a 40 Gb/s optical bit error rate test system (BERT).
