Ali Adibi, Joseph M. Pettit Professor of electronics, photonics, and bioengineering in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology, has been named editor-in-chief of the Journal of Nanophotonics (JNP), effective this month. The journal is published by SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics.
JNP focuses on the fabrication and application of nanostructures that facilitate the generation, propagation, manipulation, and detection of light from the infrared to ultraviolet regimes. The scope includes theory, modeling and simulation, experimentation, instrumentation, and application.
Adibi succeeds founding editor-in-chief Akhlesh Lakhtakia of Pennsylvania State University, who served from 2007 through 2013.
Adibi has extensive experience in design, optimisation, simulation, and fabrication of integrated photonic structures for optical sensing, optical communications, and optical signal processing. His group has demonstrated multiple photonic structures, especially resonators and spectrometers, with world-record performance.
A Fellow of SPIE, Adibi is the Nanotechnology track chair in the Optoelectronics (OPTO) symposium and chairs the conference on Photonic Crystal Materials and Devices at SPIE Photonics West.
