short description: This project is dedicated to the study of physical phenomena underlying the new generation of photonics components, quantification of these phenomena through numerical modeling and theoretical and experimental study of their impact on the static and dynamic performance of photonics components and systems based on these components. The results achieved in this project could find their application in the implementation of new solutions in low-energy consuming optical telecommunication systems, alternative energy sources, optical interconnections, biosensors, ecology, as well as in other scientific disciplines. The project consists of three types of complementary research activities. A set of the project activities is devoted to the analysis and modeling of electronic and optical properties of new semiconductor nanostructures (quantum dashes, dots and nanocolumns) and investigation of their applications in coherent photon generators and detectors in the near, mid- and far-infrared spectrum. The second set of the activities is related to the improvement of transmission medium for photonic signal transmission: plastic multimode optical fibers and integrated waveguides. Within the third set of the activities, the project deals with protocols and optimization algorithms that allow integration of photonics components into access and transport telecommunications networks that meet the requirements for minimum blocking probability and preserving the quality of service (QoS).
