| Title: Photonic devices based on strong/weak interactions between nanostructures | |
| Abstract: In this talk, we will review our recent research on design, fabrication, and application of photonic devices based on strong/weak interactions between nanostructures: 1) Based on the mechanism of Hamiltonian hopping and fast-speed adiabatic evolution for asymmetric mode transmission, a new method of development of asymmetric transmission devices is established, which overcomes the issues of low efficiency and large footprint with existing asymmetric transmission devices; 2) The optical diffractive elements based on hyperbolic metamaterials have been proposed, overcoming the transmission efficiency limitation of single-layer plasmonic metasurfaces; 3) Based on the research on broadband slow-light in hyperbolic metamaterials, a new approach to generating broadband nonlinear second harmonics has been demonstrated. | |
| Biography: Lin Chen is currently a Professor at Wuhan National Laboratory for Optoelectronics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Before joining HUST, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow at McMaster University, working with Profs. Weiping Huang and Xun Li. He received his Bachelor in Physics from Wuhan University in 2005, PhD in photonics from the same University in 2010 under the supervision of Prof. Guoping Wang. His current interest focuses on plasmonics, metamaterials, topological photonics, silicon photonics, and their applications. Dr. Chen has authored and co-authored more than 60 research papers in journals such as Nature Communications, Physical Review Letters, Laser & Photonics Reviews, Advanced Optical Materials, Physical Review Applied, Physical Review B, Optics Letters, Optics Express, Applied Physics Letters, IEEE Journal of Lightwave technology and so on. He has been invited to give more than 10 invited talks in conferences, and was a recipient of the second prize of Natural Science Award of Hubei province in 2020, and currently a member of Optica/SPIE/Chinese Optical Society. He is now serving as an Associate editor for Optical Materials Express (a journal published by Optica), and a youth editorial board member for ACTA PHOTONICA SINICA. | |
