@UniofNottingham

Welcome to the Lumen Lab!

We’re a research lab started in 2023 at the University of Nottingham with research focused on applications of optical engineering.

Research Vision

Optical engineering underlies the technology of modern life and provides solutions to some of the world’s biggest challenges. From the laser used in making your smartphone to the satellites used for imaging forest fires, optics are key.

The Lumen Lab explores applications of optical engineering to areas including 3D displays, manufacturing, medicine and space.

Team and Careers

As a lab, we are focused on building cross-disciplinary teams. We aim to draw from all branches of engineering, physics, mathematics and chemistry in finding the solutions necessary for a modern, changing world.
