Aref Rasoulzadehzali

Dr. Rasoulzadehzali is a Research Fellow at Eindhoven University of Technology's Department of Electrical Engineering, specializing in photonics and integrated optical systems. His research focuses on semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and polarization-insensitive photonic switches for data center and telecommunications applications.

Research interests include:

• Monolithic integration of InP-based photonic devices
• Optical space switching architectures
• Low-polarization-dependent amplification techniques
• High-speed optical interconnects

Recent publications demonstrate advancements in O-band optical switches and multicast switch designs, highlighting innovations in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) compatibility and power efficiency.

Current projects involve defect engineering in self-organized thin films and design of polarization-insensitive SOAs.
