}}David John Richardson {{post-nominals|country=GBR|FRS|FREng}}[3] is a Professor and Deputy Director of the Optoelectronics Research Centre at the University of Southampton.[4][5][6]

Education

Richardson was educated at St George’s Roman Catholic School, Southampton and Taunton’s College.[1] He completed his Bachelor of Science degree and PhD in Physics at the University of Sussex in 1989.[2]

Career and research

Richardson is a pioneer in the field of photonics, best known for his work on fibre optics and their applications.[3] He has played a leading role in developing techniques to scale the data-carrying capacity of future optical communication networks to keep up with society's demand for ever increasing internet bandwidth.[3] He has developed optical fibres of high performance – capable, for example, of transmitting large quantities of data across the internet at high speed.[3]

Richardson was also one of the first to demonstrate the potential of compact, flexible, pulsed fibre lasers operating over a broad range of powers, pulse durations and wavelengths.[3] Over many years he has extended the performance limits of fibre lasers, making them strong contenders to conventional lasers and contributing to their commercial success.[3] His work extends to fibres capable of delivering kilowatts of optical power for manufacturing with lasers.[3]
