Nominator's project description
| Professor Kivshar is a world leader in nonlinear photonics and metamaterials. His outstanding contributions span from nonlinear localized modes, optical solitons and localization in discrete nonlinear systems to the pioneering of an entirely new research direction of meta-optics with Mie resonances. During his stay in Germany, he will initiate a research program in the field of ultrafast all-dielectric resonant nanophotonics, which will lead to novel metadevices. |
