In this article I am describing how optics can be used to simulate the information that will be perceived by a radar system looking at a specific target. With this system, you don’t need neither the radar nor the target to obtain the information.
MDPI Material Gest Editor
Guest Editor for MDPI Materials, special issue on “Photoactive Materials: Synthesis, Applications and Technology“. Link
This issue will cover any material that interacts with the
light electromagnetic field and modifies either their own
properties or those of the field. Including:
- Nonlinear optical material (Kerr, two-photon
absorption, saturable absorber), - Photorefractive materials (crystal, polymer, hybrid).
- Photochromic materials (glass, azo-dye, chromophore).
- Spectral and orientational hole-burning.
- Plasmonic and photonics material and structures (optical nano-antenna, active nanoparticles).
- 2D material for optics (graphene, RGO, MoS 2 , WS 2 ).
- Metamaterials (negative index, gradient index, optical cloaking).
- Magneto-optics material (high Verdet constant, optical isolator).
- Material for quantum optic (single photon emitter/detector, quantum state storage, nonlinear processing).
GoerTek Seminar
08/23/2018: I will be presenting my research activities on holograms and displays at the 2018 GoerTek Optical Seminar, Weifang (China).
I had to cancel my trip to China, due to a 2 hours delay in my United Airline flight from San Diego to San Francisco. Although United acknowledge the delay, they did not provide any compensation or solution to transport me to China. Beware!
