Biography: Olivier J.F. Martin is Professor of Nanophotonics and Optical Signal Processing at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL), where he is head of the Nanophotonics and Metrology Laboratory and Director of the Microengineering Section (approx. 800 students). He conducts a comprehensive research that combines the development of numerical techniques for the solution of Maxwell’s equations with advanced nanofabrication and experiments on plasmonic systems. Applications of his research include metasurfaces, nonlinear optics, biosensing, heterogeneous catalysis, security features and optical forces at the nanoscale. Dr. Martin has authored over 250 journal articles and holds a handful of patents and invention disclosures. He received in 2016 an ERC Advanced Grant on the utilization of plasmonic forces to fabricate nanostructures. |
