Our Team Story

The multiple-award winning work of the CUNY ASRC Photonics Initiative is at the national and global forefront of groundbreaking research aiming to discover novel ways to control light, heat, radio, and sound waves. Research in the initiative achieves this through the engineering of materials at the nanoscale, benefitting the next generation of quantum computers, ultrasensitive cameras, biomedical sensors, green energy, and wireless technology.
With donor support, we can continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible, creating innovative applications that address essential needs in health care, energy efficiency, and data security. Support for students in the Photonics Initiative plays a pivotal role in accelerating life-changing solutions and driving the future of technology.
