APHO 2025
My Physics Olympiad medals remind me that I have the potential to truly make impacts if I put in enough effort. It gives me confidence to dream big, aspire more through showing that I measure up well with my international peers.
Through these competitions, I got the chance to meet and talk with people from all over the world. I loved spending time walking around the Olympiad campuses, chatting with students from different countries. Everyone I met was so bright, curious, and friendly. The world in the hands of such people makes me look forward to the future with hope. Those conversations made me feel that, as humans, we really can learn from each other and grow together, and they left me genuinely excited about working with people from every corner of the world.
EUPHO 2024
EUPHO 2024 was more than just a competition, it was a journey of curiosity, persistence, and shared passion for understanding the universe. Representing my country and earning a Silver Medal reminded me that physics is not about getting answers right, but about asking the right questions. Each problem we solved guided us a step closer to realizing how elegant nature’s truly is. This experience continues to shape how I see learning: wonder, humility, and the joy of discovery.
OPHO (2024)
I have chances to take part in OPhO and Physics Brawls Olympiad. Compared to the traditional Olympiad, which were individual games, these were team games. It was fun to see such academic competitions through the lenses of collaboration. It teaches me a lot about sharing ideas and solving problems in academic settings. I felt like we could smoothen our teamwork, improve our communications and achieve a higher position, but this had been a great experience for me.
RESEARCHs
THE 13th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PHOTONICS AND APPLICATIONS (ICPA-13)
During the summers of 2024 and 2025, I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Le Canh Trung at the Physics Laboratory of Vinh University of Education. It was my first real experience stepping into the world of research.
Supercontinuum Generation in photonic crystal fibers infiltrated with butanol
In this work, we designed a suspended core optical fiber with 4 air holes impregnated with CS2 and using AsSe2 substrate. We investigated the characteristics of this optical fiber and its application in supercontinuum emission in the mid-infrared region. As a result, with low laser power, we obtained a supercontinuum emission spectrum from 2150nm to 4450nm wavelength

Mid-infrared supercontinuum generation in a four-hole GeAsSe chalcogenide suspended-core fiber
In this work, we designed a suspended core optical fiber with 4 air holes impregnated with CS2 and using GeAsSe substrate. We investigated the characteristics of this optical fiber and its application in supercontinuum emission in the mid-infrared region. As a result, with low laser power, we obtained a supercontinuum emission spectrum from 1900nm to 5500nm wavelength. Keywords: GeAsSe, Supercontinuum generation, Supended core.

CASEAN-9 International Conference
Measurement of refractive index and absorption spectrum of olive oil
I worked on simulating photonic crystal fibers using Lumerical Mode Solutions, and measuring the refractive index and absorption spectrum of olive oil with a Michelson interferometer and a NIR spectrometer. Our results were later presented by my supervisor at the CASEAN-9 International Conference, a moment that made me quietly proud knowing that my small contributions could be part of something larger shared with the scientific community.
OTHER ACHIEVEMENTS
Each recognition feels like a quiet light not to shine on me, but to remind me of the path I’ve walked and the people who guided me along the way.
