We have presented a talk on “Time-switched metasurfaces: Conversion from guided to radiated modes” at the 24th International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications (ICEAA), Venice, Italy, Oct. 9-13, 2023.

Profs. Giuseppe Castaldi and Vincenzo Galdi have been included in the list of world’s top 2% scientists compiled by Stanford University, based on citation metrics for the year 2022. The entire ranking can be found here.

We have presented two invited talks on “Exploring interface effects in flatland optics” “Some recent developments in temporal metamaterials” and a contributed talk on “Time-switched metasurfaces as frequency multipliers for radiated modes” at the 17th International Congress on Engineered Material Platforms for Novel Wave Phenomena (Metamaterials), Crete, Greece, Sep.

Our paper on “Metasurface-enabled smart wireless attacks at the physical layer,” in collaboration with Lianlin Li (Peking University) and Tie Jun Cui (Southeast University), has been published in Nature Electronics.

We are currently offering multiple postdoctoral opportunities. We invite highly motivated candidates with strong backgrounds in electromagnetic modeling and computer-programming skills to apply for these positions. Research topics: Metamaterials for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): Explore the theoretical and practical aspects of geometry-driven magnetic metamaterials for MRI scanners operating at radio frequency.

We have presented three talks on: “Single and multiple actions of short-pulsed temporal metamaterials” “Spectral-domain method of moments for the study of line waves” “Emerging interface effects in flat optics”

We have presented an invited talk on “Plasmonic metasurface for enhanced infrared spectroscopy: a method to monitor protein denaturation” at the 13th International Conference on Metamaterials, Photonic Crystals and Plasmonics (META2023), Paris, France, July 18-21, 2023.

Marino Coppolaro has successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis in Information Technologies for Engineering entitled “Effects of Aperiodic Order and Non-Hermiticity in Effective-Medium Modeling of Metastructures”, supervised by Profs. Giuseppe Castaldi and Vincenzo Galdi.

Our paper on “Effects of realistic reradiation models in digital reconfigurable intelligent surfaces,” in collaboration with Marco Di Renzo (Paris-Saclay University/CNRS), Gabriele Gradoni (University of Surrey), and Alessio Zappone (University of Cassino and Southern Lazio), has been published in the Journal of Information and Intelligence.
