Postgraduate Research

About my research.........

I'm currently doing my master by research with UTM's Photonic Research Group. My supervisor is Assoc. Prof. Dr. Abu Bakar. My co supervisor is Assoc. Prof Dr. Norazan.
My research field is to develop a photonic switch. I am utilizing MEMs technology and electrostatic based actuation. Right now, i'm doing my modeling. It is not complete yet and i don't think i can publish it. The hand-drawn picture of the proposed design of the photonic switch is shown above.
Up to now, my most happy thing in research is that i'm learning things everyday, and trying to find out a way to do somethings. I have also been making friends with researchers around the world, and they are very friendlyl and helpful too. i'll try put the relevant information which i manage to find throughout my research duration.
