Assoc. Prof. Sergey V. Sergeyev
Associate Professor
Aston Institute of Photonic Technologies, Aston University
Sergey Sergeyev received his MSc and PhD degrees in optics and laser physics from Belarusian State University (BSU), Minsk, in 1985 and 1991, respectively. From 1988 to 1999, he worked at the Department of Physics, BSU in a range of different positions, from Research Assistant to Senior Researcher/Team Leader.
As a team leader, he was the PI of projects related to polarisation laser dynamics. From 1999 to 2005, Sergey moved to Sweden and acquired industrial and academic experience by working on erbium-doped fibre amplifiers’ design and characterisation at Ericsson AB, Acreo AB, and Royal Institute of Technology. From 2005 to 2010, he worked at the Optics Research Group (ORG), Waterford Institute of Technology (WIT), Ireland, as a Senior Researcher and PI on projects related to erbium-doped fibre amplifiers and polarisation phenomena in fibre Raman amplifiers and lasers.
In 2010, he was awarded a prestigious and very competitive Marie Curie Fellowship as a Senior Researcher and joined AIPT, Aston University. He has since continued employment at AIPT, initially as a Senior Research Fellow (2012-15), AIPT Senior Research Fellow (2015-18), and Associate Research Professorial Fellow (since 2018). He has co-authored over 200 papers in top-rank journals and conference proceedings, five patents, one book and four book chapters.
