Congratulations to Ashwin Boddeti on his selection as a finalist for the Emil Wolf Outstanding Student Paper Competition at FIO2021 for the paper titled: Giant Long-Range Dipole-Dipole Interactions in a Plasmonic Lattice in the FiO 3 Quantum Electronics category. The paper talks about the...

Ashwin Boddeti, a graduate student with Purdue University’s Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, has been awarded the Wolf Outstanding Student Paper Competition by Optica (formerly OSA). Established in 2008 to honor Emil Wolf for his many contributions to science and Optica...

Researchers at the University of Alberta, Canada, have proposed a new approach to confining light at subdiffraction wavelengths, using transparent metamaterials—without creating heat or losing data, and with dramatically reduced crosstalk.

A new approach to control forces and interactions between atoms and molecules, such as those employed by geckos to climb vertical surfaces, could bring advances in new materials for developing quantum light sources.

Congratulations to Ashwin for winning the Emil Wolf best student paper prize at Frontiers of Optics 2021. His research is related to dipole-dipole interactions in nanophotonics. These interactions occur between atoms or molecules and are responsible for phenomena like Van Der Waals forces - think...

Our recent publication on long-range dipole-dipole interactions has featured as an online cover in Nano Letters . The paper shows that unique hybrid plasmonic lattice modes mediate dipole-dipole interactions between two different types of molecules over separation distances of ~800 nm. This is in...
