[AG-TECH] Research Computing Seminar - RIT, Thursday Dec 13

[Keith Simmons]

Everyone is invited to attend the next Research Computing seminar  
from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Title: "Evolutionary Nanophotonics"

Presented by: Stefan Preble, Professor, MicroSystems Engineering

Venue:  Rochester Institute of Technology
https://vv3.mcs.anl.gov:8000/Venues/8cdd226521d429b68e7e8c0158a6a663

Date: Dec 13, 4:00 PM EST

It isn't always straightforward how to design nanophotonic devices.  
In order to obtain better performance we have recently turned to  
nature for our inspiration. For example, nature has evolved many of  
the very first nanophotonic devices, such as the beautiful colors of  
some butterfly wings. In this talk we will present evolutionary  
designed devices that significantly outperform human designs.
