Mohammad Mukit

Mohammad Mukit is a Researcher at the Electrical Engineering department of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), working within the Electro-Optical Communication research group. His research focuses on developing novel photonic integrated circuits using Titanium Dioxide and Indium Phosphide platforms for next-generation telecom and datacom applications.

His primary research interests include:

• Photonic Integrated Circuits
• Optical Communications
• Telecommunications and Data Communications
• Titanium Dioxide Photonics
• Indium Phosphide Photonics
• Optical Amplifiers and Wavelength Division Multiplexing

Mukit's current research involves two major projects: designing photonic integrated bi-directional optical amplifier subsystems for 5G mobile fronthaul networks using Indium Phosphide, and establishing Titanium Dioxide platforms for telecom applications. He handles the complete photonic circuit development process from device design through cleanroom fabrication to characterization.

His publications demonstrate significant advancements in Titanium Dioxide photonics, achieving record fiber-to-chip coupling efficiencies of 50% with grating couplers and 85% with inverse adiabatic taper couplers. His work addresses limitations in current photonic materials by enabling broadband operation across multiple wavelength bands.

Mukit has been awarded the prestigious Erasmus+ scholarship for his master's program and the Marie Skłodowska-Curie scholarship for his doctoral research, reflecting his academic excellence and research potential in photonics.

His research enables novel disaggregate optical data center architectures and dynamic metro access switching nodes with edge computing functionalities, contributing to next-generation telecommunications infrastructure and 5G/6G mobile networks.
