    Electromagnetics and Photonics


    Research Accomplishments
    Spatially Variant Lattices
    Capable of spatially varying unit
    cell orientation, lattice spacing, fill
    fraction, material composition,
    and more, in arbitrary patterns
    without deforming the unit cells
    or introducing defects.

    Spatially Variant Anisotropic


    Metamaterials (SVAMs)
    Improves electromagnetic
    compatibility by reshaping
    the near-field around
    components. Excellent for
    placing antennas and other
    components in close
    proximity.

    Spatially Variant Photonic Crystals


    Controls light in three
    dimensions with unprecedented
    abruptness even using low
    refractive index. World record
    for tightest bend of unguided
    optical beam. Able to multiplex
    different functions and physics
    within the same volume of space.
