The 2026 International Nanotechnology Conference in Israel: early bird registration until Nov. 30 2025.

Brener Igal: "Advancing Light-Matter Interactions with III-V Metasurfaces: Photon-Pair Generation and Single-Photon Emission"

Metasurfaces enable the manipulation of far-field optical fields while offering new ways to control and tailor local field distributions and intens

Prof. Uriel Levy (HUJI): "Metasurfaces: From new materials and geometries to imaging and tunability"

We demonstrate several different material platformsfor the realization of metasurfaces, with emphasis on different mechanisms for theimplementation

Jacob B Khurgin : "Why do the refractive indexes of different materials differ so little and are also so difficult to change? "

For too long the functionality of optical devices and systems has been severely restricted by the very limited range of refractive indices at the d

Prof. Konstantin Bliokh from Donostia International Physics Center: "Topologically structured waves and manipulation of particles"

I will present recent theoretical and experimental results on: (i) subwavelength high-intensity vortices around ‘holes’ or ‘islands’ in 2D wave sys

Prof. Maria Chekhova: "Spontaneous parametric down-conversion in a liquid crystal"

Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) is the workhorse of quantum optics and photonic quantum technologies.
