Research in photonics started at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering as early as 1986 under the Optic Research Group. The Lightwave Communication Research Group (LCRG) was formed in 2006 for photonic based research at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. LCRG is the home of experienced researchers in the field of photonics and telecommunications. LCRG is equipped with the state-of-the-art facilities that are to realize the simulation, fabrication and characterization of optical devices and systems. The group is involved in R&D and consultation services that are related to photonic based telecommunication devices, system and technology. We are committed in developing and testing new products that will further enhance Malaysian’s progress in the area of science and technology. One of our aims is to actively making R&D efforts to successfully come up with optical communication devices and systems. We are constantly increasing our capabilities in providing first class system design, consultation services and calibration of optical measurement equipment. LCRG is actively involved in R&D and services related to photonics based telecommunication devices, systems, network and technology.
