School information
2-day school (29-30.08.2014) within the EUPROMETA Doctoral Programme will be organized.
The school topic is "Novel terahertz and infrared metamaterials".
Topics and lecturers:
1. Peter Uhd Jepsen (Technical University of Denmark, Denmark)
"Introduction to terahertz science and technology (generation, propagation, detection, applications)"
2. Daniel Mittleman (Rice University, USA)
"THz metamaterials: fabrication, characterization and applications.”
3. Javier Garcia de Abajo (ICFO, Spain)
“Graphene for THz and IR metamaterials and plasmonics (focus on theory).”
4. Tony Low (IBM, USA)
“Light-Matter Interactions in 2D Materials: From physics to devices."
5. Mikhail Lapine (University of Sydney, Australia)
“Nonlinear and reconfigurable metamaterials from microwaves to terahertz and infrared.”
6. Gennady Shvets (University of Texas at Austin, USA)
“Mid-infrared metamaterials and devices.”
Social event:
The social event (barbeque party) will be a joint event together with DTU’s OSA and SPIE chapters.
Grant support:
The Doctoral School organizers will provide a few grants for students. The school registration fees will be reimbursed for grant recipients. The grantee selection will be based on the applicants' scientific merits and on their personal circumstances, such as being students from low-income countries.
To apply for the grant, it is necessary to register for the DoctoralSchool first. After that, an applicant must email his/her CV and cover letter from supervisor/advisor to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. by June 25th. Notifications will be sent by July 15.
