ECE Associate Professor Wenshan Cai has received an Office of Naval Research (ONR) Young Investigator Award.

Researchers have realized one of the long-standing theoretical predictions in nonlinear optical metamaterials: creation of a nonlinear material that has opposite refractive indices at the fundamental and harmonic frequencies of light.

Professor Wenshan Cai secures a spot in Optica's prestigious 2024 Fellow Class, recognizing his groundbreaking contributions that have advanced the field of optics and photonics.
