Our group focuses on the
physics and engineering of light on a mesoscopic scale ranging from tens of
microns down to tens of nanometers. In this regime, we can explore myriads of
fascinating optical phenomena both theoretically and experimentally. Topics
include: Metamaterials -
Pursuing novel artificial functionalities at optical frequency provided by
the nano/micro-scale fabrication, such as negative refraction or cloaking Optomechanics -
Radiation-pressure-induced regenerative mechanical amplification or cooling
of an optomechanical micro- or nanocavity Plasmonics -
More specifically, surface plasmon-polariton cavities and their
miniaturization down to subwavelength-scale Silicon Photonics -
Nanopatterned crystalline silicon or silicon nanocrystals and their
application to efficient silicon light sources |

Graduate (M.S. & Ph.D.)
and postdoctoral research positions are currently available. Any undergraduate student who wants to
be involved in URP program is also welcome. |
