SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, has appointed Sean Shaheen as new editor-in-chief of the Journal of Photonics for Energy (JPE), effective July 1, 2020. Shaheen succeeds the journal's founding editor-in-chief, Zakya Kafafi, who has served in this position since 2011.
JPE has become a valuable platform for the dissemination of knowledge generated in laboratories around the world working on new photovoltaic and related energy-harvesting devices.
JPE covers fundamental and applied research areas focused on the applications of photonics for renewable energy harvesting, conversion, storage, distribution, monitoring, consumption, and efficient usage.
Shaheen is an associate professor by courtesy in the University of Colorado Boulder's Department of Physics; a Fellow of the Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute (RASEI), joint appointee to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL); and director of the university's Authentic Research Experiences for Teachers (ARETe) Program, which matches faculty from Colorado two-year colleges with research laboratories in the College of Engineering and Applied Science at CU Boulder for in-depth, collaborative research experiences.
Prior to his current role, Shaheen held a faculty position in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Denver and was a Senior Scientist at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
