The Fibre-optics and Photonics Laboratory (FPL) specialises in research into advanced optical techniques for information systems. This involves fundamental research into photonics, and projects with industry. The research focuses photonic signal processing, optical communications, microwave photonics, nonlinear fibre optics, optical network security and encryption, optically-controlled phased arrays, and terahertz/gigahertz photonics in communication and radar systems.

FPL has outstanding research resources and facilities, including state-of-the-art photonic laboratories, laser and fibre-optics laboratories, and experimental capabilities for high speed optical and microwave measurements of signals.

The research of FPL is internatioanlly renown, and FPL has been successful in winning major research funding from nationally competitive research grant sources including the Australian Research Council, from the Defence Science and Technology Organisation, from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, and from industry.
