报告内容简介:Plasmonic and metamaterials have introduced tremendous research interest within last decade and has become an increasingly important field in nanophotonics.The extraordinary optical properties of plasmonic structures and metamaterials have opened up a variety of novel applications such as super resolution imaging, deep-subwavelength waveguides, ultrasensitive sensors and etc. In this talk I will review some of our recent work on passive control of light, including plasmonic structured illumination microscopy, Metalens and plasmonic OLED based imaging technologies. I will also talk about a recent work to enhance the light emission speed by using hyperbolic metamaterials. Other topics such as solar thermal energy and extraordinary thermal conductivity in metamaterials will also be briefly discussed.

报告人简介:Zhaowei Liu is an Associate Professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at UCSD. He received his Ph.D. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MEMS/Nanotechnology) from UCLA in 2006, and was subsequently a postdoctoral researcher in NSF Nanoscale Science & Engineering Center (NSEC) and Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley. In 2008 he joined the faculty at UCSD. His research is primarily in the fields of nanophotonics, super-resolution imaging and sensing, metamaterials, plasmonics, energy, and micro/nanofabrication. He is a recipient of the 2010 SME Outstanding Young Manufacturing Engineer Award, the UCSD 2010 Hellman Faculty Fellowship Award, the 2013 Office of Naval Research (ONR) Young Investigator Award, and the 2013 DARPA Young Faculty Award.
