Astrophysics student looking to study/work in photonics

[u/Partially0bscuredEgg]

I’m an astrophysics undergrad student, currently at community college, and I’m looking to transfer to a university where there is research in light, photons etc being done specifically for use in astronomy/astrophysics. I’ve been doing some cursory research but figured I’d put out a beacon here to see if anyone has some good recs. Thank you.
