Bio/Research

Dr. Thomas Brabec has spent the last decade building his reputation as one of Europe's leading scientists in photonics. His expertise has advanced work on laser physics, with emphasis on ultra-short pulses, quantum electronics and a new area known as "strong field laser physics". The novel theoretical and experimental approaches developed by Dr. Brabec and his collaborators at the Vienna University of Technology are widely published in several leading international journals.

As Chair in Ultrafast Photonics at the University of Ottawa, Dr. Brabec is now applying his wealth of knowledge to further strengthen Canada's position in this emerging field. A number of researchers from his Vienna team have joined the university's strong team of top researchers already working in photonics-related fields. Under Dr. Brabec's expert guidance, the team is creating a world class research centre for advanced photonics.
