Michelle Sander

The Sander group explores optical material interactions to develop novel laser sources in the infrared and mid-infrared wavelength regime. Our research focuses on novel ultrafast devices and how ultrafast and photothermal light interactions can fuel new applications in biomedical imaging and material characterization. We study femtosecond pulse generation techniques (1 femtosecond = 10-15 seconds) to […]

Xin Zhang

Professor Xin Zhang’s scholarly endeavors are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of metamaterials and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS or microsystems), spanning from elucidating their fundamental physics and mathematical underpinnings to crafting their design, development, and practical implementation in real-world scenarios. The ultimate success in developing these material and system classes hinges both on a rigorous understanding […]
