Coherent perfect absorption and transmission of light

Stefan Rotter TU Wien - Vienna University of Technology Coherent perfect absorption and transmission of light In my talk I will present two recent works focused on the perfect absorption and transmission of waves through interferometric cancellation of backscattering. In the first case , we demonstrate that even a weakly absorbing film can be turned […]

Design meets evolution: Theory and practice

Víctor de Lorenzo The Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) Design meets evolution: Theory and practice The prevailing view of biological evolution is not unlike bricolage/pastiche/tinkering—in sharp contrast with rational engineering. Yet, different paths often lead to solutions that coincide or converge whether they emerge from naturally-occurring evolution or rationally designed. Such a conjunction—often presented as […]
