The E-MIT (Engineering of Microwaves, Terahertz and Light) Group is born out of the solid and outstanding background of the Department’s High Power Microwave Group. As such, it is a key part of the Cockcroft Institute for Accelerator Science & Technology, an international centre of excellence for R&D of future particle accelerators.

New competences and resources within E-MIT are allowing it to expand its research in high frequency fields towards novel and fascinating frontiers: Terahertz or T-Rays, Photonics, Optoelectronics, novel artificial functional materials. The E-MIT group aims to merge consolidated knowledge with research beyond the state of the art, to create an exciting environment for students and researchers worldwide.

More information on E-MIT’s activities can be found on its website (http://www.engineering.lancs.ac.uk/e-mit/index.html), the webpages of the individual staff accessible through the "People" tab above or on the Cockcroft Institute website (http://www.cockcroft.ac.uk/).
