Alexander Solntsev awarded AIPS NSW 2023 Young Tall Poppy

A/Prof Solntsev focuses on two significant challenges in today’s digital world. Firstly, the growing demand for faster and more efficient communication and computing systems, and secondly, the need for more secure data transfer methods.

His past and present work centres around the use of light to process and transmit information, as it can be faster, more efficient, and secure than traditional systems. Specifically, he is now working on the manipulation of individual light particles, or photons, in tiny structures to allow for even more advanced communication and computing capabilities.
