Photonics Initiative Seminar: Yang Zhao & Yun-Sheng Chen

Dr. Yang Zhao University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign Imaging, Sensing, and Wearable Devices Using Nanophotonic Platforms Abstract – Personalized health emphasizes prevention and early diagnosis over solely tailoring therapies. My lab's nanophotonic approaches center on developing precision tools to detect biomarkers, imaging molecular interaction functions, and designing sustainable wearable devices. In this talk, I will highlight

Thesis Defense: Seungri (Victor) Kim

The Effects of Nanoconfined Liquid Properties on the Water-Responsive Behavior of Bacterial Cell Walls   Abstract: Water-responsive (WR) materials have the ability to mechanically swell and shrink in response to changes in relative humidity (RH). These WR materials are used by many biological systems to perform essential tasks; for example, pinecones use WR materials to

Thesis Defense: Shixiong Yin

Enhanced Light-Matter Interactions in Complex Photonic Systems Mentor: Andrea Alù Abstract Interactions between light and matter are fundamental to breakthroughs in lasers, sensing, imaging, spectroscopy, energy harvesting, and quantum information processing. As a result, significant recent efforts have been geared towards enhancing and controlling light-matter interactions to advance these applications and technologies. Complex engineered photonic

Guest Speaker: Job Boekhoven, PhD

Regulating molecular assembly with chemical fuels—Spinning ribbons, dissipative structures, and an approach towards synthetic life Job Boekhoven, PhD Department of Bioscience, Technical University of Munich Abstract-Molecular self-assembly is the process in which molecules combine into superstructures held together through non-covalent interactions. Over the last decades, supramolecular chemists have perfected this art, and we can now
