Doctor of Engineering (EngD) - Visible wavelength optical metasurfaces for use in user-machine interfaces (STMicroelectronics and University of St Andrews)

Heriot-Watt University School of Engineering & Physical Sciences

Research Group: CDT in Applied Photonics

Optical metasurfaces offer complete freedom in definition of an optical function and do so on a flat surface. This property enables fabrication of sophisticated optics at wafer-level and therefore opens up the possibility of ultra-high-volume manufacture, in particular to address consumer markets. Read more
