Waves in Time-Varying Media 2023

Abstract

Approved for Public ReleaseTechnical descriptionBorn at the intersection between several fields, such as electrodynamics and photonics, condensed matter physics, acoustics and signal processing, the study of wave phenomena in time-varying media has recently emerged as an extremely fruitful and dynamic area of research (1-4). This workshop consists of a single track of oral presentations selected by the technical program committee among the top researchers in this growing field. More specifically, the program includes 5 keynote talks (1h) by world-class experts Sir John Pendry of Imperial College London (UK), Eugene Demler of ETH (Switzerland), Alexandra Boltasseva of Purdue University (USA), Emmanuel Fort of ESPCI, Paris (France) and Tie Jun Cui of Southeast University (China). Inaddition, leading experts will present invited talks, which will review the state-of-the-art and address the latest advancements intheir respective areas. Furthermore, a poster session is scheduled for providing opportunity to debate in a more relaxed and informal setting, and 2 Early-Career Prize talks, awarded to the best theoretical and experimental poster presenters, selected based on their abstract submission and associated research merit.The technical oral talks and interactive poster sessions will encompass a broad range of topics, from fundamental electromagnetic theory of metamaterials and complex electromagnetic media to innovative microwave and optical devices.Desired outcomesThis conference provides the means to discuss the latest results in on time-varying media research to a worldwide audience, bringing together the engineering, physics, and material science communities working in the field of artificial electromagnetic materials and their applications from microwaves to optical frequencies, as well as in acoustics, mechanics, hydrodynamics and thermodynamics. It is a unique forum where the typically strong interdisciplinary collaborations in the areas covered by the conference were born. Top scientists discuss developing technologies, enabling performance beyond state-of-the-art devices, e.g. electromagnetic sensors, and providing unprecedented signature control of Naval platforms through innovative wave manipulation techniques.
