Education
Krasnoyarsk State University.
physicist university professor
Krasnoyarsk State University.
He specializes in metamaterials, transformation optics, nanophotonics and plasmonics. He made pioneering contributions to the optics of fractal and percolation composites, their applications for Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS), and to the field of optical metamaterials, including first experimental observation (collectively with his research team at Purdue University) of negative refractive index in the optical range (This work was ranked in the top 50 innovations in nanotechnology in 2006 by Nanotech Briefs ) and magnetism across the entire visible range. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (Australian Psychological Society ), of The International Society for Optical Engineering (International Society for Optical Engineering), and of the Optical Society of America (The Optical Society).
Professor
Shalaev is a Company-/Editor for five books in the area of nano-optics and an Editorial Board Member for a number of research journals. He co-/authored two books, twenty invited book contributions, and about 300 research publications. One of the books, Electrodynamics of Metamaterials (World Scientific Publishing, 2007, ), is authoritative in the field of plasmonic nanostructure research.
He is also on the editorial board of the peer reviewed journal Metamaterials, along with a number of other notable board members who have significantly contributed to metamaterial research.
