The History of the Laser Group at Liverpool

Laser Group at Liverpool > The History of the Laser Group at Liverpool

The Laser Group, part of the School of Engineering at the University of Liverpool, is the UK’s largest University based research group in laser materials processing.  The facilities at Liverpool are a resource of international importance with state of the art high power laser equipment for the research and industrial development of welding, cutting, marking, surface treatments and novel laser based processes.

The Group is led by Geoff Dearden who has over 25 years experience and over 175 publications in the laser engineering field. Dr Dearden is a Professor in the University of Liverpool, Head of the Laser Group. Currently the Group consists of over 15 scientists, technicians and support staff.

The origins of the laser activity at Liverpool lie with Professor Bill Steen at Imperial College in the 1970’s. In 1988, Professor Steen moved the group to Liverpool to take up the James Bibby Chair of Engineering Manufacture, established by Dr Mason Bibby in honour of his father.
