Research

Prof. Shalaev's research interests lie in the area of physics of light-matter interaction, including nanophotonics, plasmonics, non-linear and quantum optics, development of new optical metamaterials and their applications. He made significant contributions to

  • optics of fractal and percolation composites and their applications for Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS),
  • the field of optical metamaterials, including first experimental observation (collectively with his research team at Purdue University) of negative refractive index in the optical frequency range and magnetic response across the entire visible range,
  • development of new material platforms for plasmonics aimed at enabling plasmonic applications requiring mechanical and thermal resiliency of constituent materials and their compatibility with modern semiconductor technologies.

    • Awards and honors

    Prof. Shalaev received a number of awards for his research and leadership in the field of nanophotonics and metamaterials, including

  • The 2015 IEEE Photonics Society William Streifer Scientific Achievement Award “for seminal contributions both to the theoretical framework and to the ground‐breaking experimental realization of optical metamaterials”,
  • 2015 Rolf Landauer International ETOPIM Association Medal. According to the ETOPIM website, "the medal is awarded to honour senior scientists with pioneering contributions in the study of inhomogeneous media",
  • 2014 OSA and SPIE Joseph W. Goodman Book Writing Award for the book Optical Metamaterials: Fundamentals and Applications; authors: W. Cai and V. Shalaev,
  • The 2012 UNESCO Medal for the Development of Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies,
  • The 2010 Willis E. Lamb Award for Laser Science and Quantum Optics "for pioneering studies of optical metamaterials and plasmonic nanostructures",
  • The 2010 Optical Society of America Max Born Award "for seminal contributions to both the theoretical framework and the experimental realization of optical metamaterials",
  • Honorary Doctorate from University of Southern Denmark,
  • The 2006 Top 50 Nano Technology Award for "Nanorod Material".

    • V. Shalaev is a Fellow of

  • The American Physical Society (APS),
  • The International Society for Optical Engineering (SPIE),
  • The Optical Society of America (OSA),
  • The Materials Research Society
  • The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.

    • Publications

    Prof. V. Shalaev co-/authored three- and co-/edited four books in the area of his scientific expertise. According to Prof. Shalaev's website, over the course of his career he contributed 28 invited chapters to various scientific anthologies and published a number of invited review articles, over 400 publications in total, including 277 research papers in refereed journals. He is also a co-inventor in 20 patents, and he made over 300 invited presentations at International Conferences and leading research centers, including a number of plenary and keynote talks.
