Free electron beam devices using THz metamaterials
When: Thursday, November 10th, 2011, Reception @ 12:00 m
Where: Faraday West 227
During the past few years, scientists have thus paid a great deal of attention to artificially engineered EM materials, Metamaterials, first hypothesized in 1967 by Victor Veselago. The rapid advance of the subject, both in theory and experiment, is reflected in the exponential growth of publications which are now at the 200 per year level and still growing. This talk will introduce emerging free electron beam devices conceived with RF-optoelectronic structures, following general overview of metamaterials.
Dr. Young-Min Shin received the B.S. degree from Chung-Ang University, Seoul, Korea, in 1999, and the Ph.D. degree from Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea, in 2006, in physics. From 2001 to 2003, he was a Visiting Researcher with the Klystron/Microwave Department, Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), Menlo Park, CA. He has worked on various millimeter and sub- millimeter wave micro-vacuum electron devices including TWTs and klystrons. Recently, his research interest is mainly focused on MEMS fabrication/integration of novel THz vacuum sources combined with surface plasmonic metamaterials in near-field-optics. He was a research scientist at the Department of Applied Science, University of California, Davis, CA. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Physics, Northern Illinois University, Dekalb, IL, and an Associate Scientist at the Accelerator Physics Center (APC), Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL), Batavia, IL.
