The Applied Photonics Group (APG) of the UPV/EHU is leading research in the field of polymeric optical fibres and sensors applied to the aeronautical, industrial and biomedical sectors. It has published above 150 publications in journals of high repute (including Science, Nature Photonics, etc.) and has attracted ~3.5 M€ in competitive research funding. It has also produced 6 patents and launched a spin-off company (AOTECH).
With respect to the network, the APG studies the generation and guidance of structured light and its applications in advanced sensing. The group is composed of 19 members, 9 of which will be directly involved in the network.
