Research Areas

The five KSOP research areas are organized according to the needs in education and the existing strengths of the research programs at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). All research areas are strongly interlinked and most institutes feature research projects in more than one of the research areas. Brief introductions into these research areas:

• Photonic Materials & Devices 
• Quantum Optics & Spectroscopy
• Biomedical Photonics
• Optical Systems 
• Solar Energy
