Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden

Professor Menyuk is well known internationally for his work on nonlinear optics and its applications. He has made outstanding contributions to theoretical and computational modelling. Professor Menyuk developed the equations that govern the propagation of light in optical fibre communications, studying the stability and noise response of mode-locked lasers and carrying out fundamental theoretical studies of nonlinear processes. During his stay in Germany he plans to work on nonlinear effects in gas and glass-cored photonic crystal fibres.
