Costas Soukoulis on photonic metamaterials
Ανέβηκε στις 15 Νοε 2010
With properties that don't exist in nature, metamaterials open up an exciting range of possibilities.
In
the last decade, a new area of photonics research has emerged,
involving materials with entirely novel electromagnetic properties.
Known as metamaterials for their ability to extend beyond conventional
materials the field has potential in a plethora of applications, where
control over light (or more generally electromagnetic radiation) is a
prominent ingredient. These include telecommunications, solar energy
harvesting, biological and THz imaging and sensing, optical isolators
and polarizers. In this interview, Costas M. Soukoulis introduces the
field, reviews recent progress, and highlights current challenges and
opportunities.
Soukoulis is a Distinguished Professor in the
Department of Physics and Astronomy, Frances M. Craig Endowed Chair at
Iowa State University and Senior Physicist at Ames Laboratory. He is a
Fellow of the APS, OSA, and AAAS. He received the senior Humboldt
Research Award in 2002 and the European Union René Descartes Prize in
2005. He was interviewed at SPIE Optics + Photonics in August, 2010.
