Laserlab-Europe organizes a Summer School on Hands-on Design of Metasurfaces for Ultrafast Lasers held on July 24 to 26, 2024 (Wednesday - Friday) at the Institute for Experimental Physics at Graz University of Technology, Austria.
Application for this 3-day training course is now open, and we invite (graduate) students in photonics to submit their applications by May 05, 2024.
During the course, you will experience:
✔ 3 days of focus classes on the background and hands-on design of optical metasurfaces, covering topics such as
- principles of optical metasurfaces and finite-difference-time domain simulations
- design of uniform metasurfaces and phase-based optics
- description, generation, and manipulation of ultrashort and attosecond laser pulses
- polarizing metaoptics and geometric phase
- metasurface resonators and nonlinear metaoptics
✔ highlight lectures by 5 invited experts in the field:
- Ileana-Cristina Benea-Chelmus, HYLAB, École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne
- Ahmed Dorrah, Harvard University
- Amit Agrawal
- Thomas Weiss, University of Graz
- Martin Schultze, Graz University of Technology
✔ network with students from across Europe in a poster session and a course dinner.
Application
Attendance is limited to 20 participants. All applications are welcome. Applications from scientists in Ukraine and from underrepresented groups are encouraged. Please apply by filling in the application form (Google Forms) until May 05, 2024.
