Centre for Electronics

Click here to join the online meeting Summary The propagation of light through various media has long been a subject of fundamental interest in physics. Optical phenomena such as diffraction, scattering, and emission are not only rich in physical content but also central to applications in information processing, imaging, security, and medicine—making research in optics both scientifically and socially relevant. While most optical effects in conventional isotropic media are well...
