​The Mid-Infrared as an Optical Playground
​

Don't miss our keynote speaker Dan Wasserman, Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of Texas at Austin and an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer. Professor Wasserman will speak about his work in the development of optical devices for the mid-infrared (IR) spectral range
(3 - 30 microns). Because components are not as mature as shorter wavelength technologies (think telecom and lighting), mid-IR researchers have a "unique materials playground" to explore light-matter interactions and new applications. Before joining UT Austin in 2016, Professor Wasserman was on the faculty at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign from 2007 - 2015. In 2004, he completed a Doctorate in Electrical Engineering at Princeton University. Professor Wasserman earned a B.S. in Engineering/Physics and History from Brown University in 1998. He is also the recipient of an NSF CAREER Award and the AFOSR Young Investigator Award. You can visit his group page here.
