Abstract
With the significant advancement of micro/nano-manufacturing technologies in the last few decades, people now have the capabilities to build materials at nanometer scales. Metamaterials are engineered artificial materials that offer revolutionary material properties that have not been found in naturally existing materials. In this talk I will review both the field of nanomanufacturing and metamaterials, as well as our work in the fields such as super resolution imaging and microscopy, plasmonic assisted nanolithography, negative refraction in metamaterials and invisibility.
Biography
Zhaowei Liu is an Assistant Professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at UCSD. He received his Ph.D. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MEMS/Nanotechnology) from UCLA in 2006, and was subsequently a postdoctoral researcher in NSF Nanoscale Science & Engineering Center (NSEC) and Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley. In 2008 he joined the faculty at UCSD. His research is primarily in the fields of nanophotonics, super-resolution imaging and sensing, metamaterials, plasmonics, and micro/nanofabrication. He is a recipient of the 2010 SME Outstanding Young Manufacturing Engineer Award, 2010 Hellman Fellowship Award. He is also a 2010 Kavli Fellow selected by the National Academy of Sciences. His research has been selected by the Time Magazine as top 10 scientific discoveries (7th) of 2008, and Discovery Magazine’s list of top 100 science stories at 2007 (58th) and 2008 (7th).
