NKT Photonics

NKT Photonics is the global leading manufacturer of high performance photonic crystal fibers and single frequency lasers. NKT is headquartered in Denmark, with production facilities in Denmark, Germany, Switzerland and UK and is operating worldwide. NKT is also one of the main players in R&D on broadband supercontinuum lasers in Europe with a decade of industrial expertise on laser innovation and has worked with speciality fiber even longer. The photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) of NKT photonics are the only type of fibers with which one can guide light of any wavelength without it becoming spatially multimoded. This technology is highly important for the delivery of multiple wavelengths in the project.

Within the iqClock project NKT Photonics will develop specific photonic crystal fibers for multicolour fibre delivery systems in the integrated optical lattice clock (Task 1).

Team members

Peter M. Moselund will be responsible for administration within the project. He has been a Research Scientist at NKT Photonics for 11 years and has a large experience in the application of fiber lasers, specialty fibers and project management. He manages NKT’s EU funded projects and is responsible for NKTs role in eight H2020 projects and two Eurostar project.

Jens Kristian Lyngsøe will be in charge for the technical management of NKTs work in the project. He completed his MSc from Copenhagen University in 2006 and after a short period as research engineer at OFS he enrolled in a PhD on PCF design at The Danish Technology with collaboration from NKT Photonics, which he completed in 2010. Since then he has worked as a research scientist and team leader at NKT Photonics specializing in PCF design.
