Research summary
AI-generated

This bibliographic record appears to combine publications from at least two distinct research areas: laser physics/photonics (fiber lasers, mid-infrared supercontinuum sources, optical sensing, nanoparticle characterization) and South Caucasus archaeology (Bronze and Iron Age settlement surveys, radiocarbon dating, GIS and remote sensing methods in Armenia). Because the name 'Ian Lindsay' may correspond to multiple researchers, prospective students should verify which body of work matches the specific PI they are considering, since the topics and methods differ substantially.

Publication output over the last decade has been irregular, with occasional gaps (e.g., 2021) and fluctuating counts between 0 and 4 papers per year, averaging about 2.2 publications annually over the last five years.
