Dr Harry Penketh
Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Physics and Astronomy
I am currently working in Euan Hendry's THz group, developing computational imaging and wavefront control systems at T/GHz frequencies. For example, using computational imaging techniques to turn available single element detectors into super-resolution cameras, for applications such as cancer detection and non-destructive evaluation. I also have an overlapping research interest in metamaterials, in particular methods for making them reconfigurable and how they might benefit from, or be used for, computational imaging applications.
I have previously worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow for Jacopo Bertolotti. This work concerned the study of speckle correlations for imaging using multimode fibres.
Prior to this my PhD research project was supervised by Jacopo Bertolotti and Bill Barnes at the University of Exeter (2016-2020). This project entitled "Control of white light emission for illumination and imaging" was sponsored by Dyson and involved the design and characterisation of novel lighting technologies.
I graduated from the University of Exeter with an MPhys in Physics in 2016. My Master's research project involved exploiting speckle correlations to image using scattered light. This project was supervised by Jacopo Bertolotti.
