Dr Erik Schartner

Postdoctoral Researcher

School of Physics, Chemistry and Earth Sciences

Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology

Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD - email supervisor to discuss availability.

Erik completed his BSc (Hons) at the University of Adelaide in 2007. From 2008-2011 he completed his PhD under the supervision of Prof Heike Ebendorff-Heidepriem, and Prof Tanya Monro on a collaborative project with The Defence Science and Technology Organisation on a project entitled "Hydrogen peroxide sensing with microstructured optical fibres: fuel, wine and babies."

Since the completion of his PhD Erik has worked on a range of industrial, medical and biological sensing applications based on the interactions of light with the environment, and methods to obtain information from these interactions. His core interests involve optical fibre fabrication & sensing, fluorescence & Raman spectroscopy, and design of optical systems for field and industrial uses.

Erik's current project is looking at the development of an optical sensor for Asbestos detection, in partnership with Flawless Photonics, funded through The Asbestos Safety and Eradication Agency and the Australian Government Business Research and Innovation Initiative.
