Paolo Biagioni is an Associate Professor with the Physics Department of Politecnico di Milano, Italy. His research interests include nano-optics and plasmonics. At present his main activities are focused on linear and nonlinear properties of nanoantennas, polarization control and optical chirality at the nanoscale, and mid-infrared plasmonics and sensing with heavily-doped semiconductors. He was the Coordinator of the FET-Open project GEMINI (“Germanium mid-infrared plasmonics for sensing”) financed by the European Commission and of the PRIN project “Plasmon enhanced vibrational circular dichroism” financed by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research. He is also the Coordinator of the CD LAB, an interdepartmental facility for chiroptical spectroscopies with Politecnico di Milano, and the President for the years 2021–2022 of the Italian Society for Optics and Photonics (SIOF), the Italian branch of the European Optical Society (EOS). He is the coauthor of more than 85 publications on international scientific journals and more than 200 contributions at international conferences and workshops.
Mona Jarrahi received the B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the Sharif University of Technology in 2000 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford University in 2003 and 2007. She was a Postdoctoral Scholar with the University of California Berkeley from 2007 to 2008. After serving as an Assistant Professor with the University of Michigan Ann Arbor, she joined the University of California Los Angeles in 2013 where she is currently a Professor of electrical engineering and the Director of the Terahertz Electronics Labora-tory. Prof. Jarrahi has made significant contributions to the development of ultrafast electronic and optoelectronic devices and integrated systems for terahertz, infrared, and millimeter-wave sensing, imaging, computing, and communication systems by utilizing novel materials, nanostructures, and quantum well structures as well as innovative plasmonic and optical concepts. The outcomes of her research have appeared in 200 publications and 160 keynote/plenary/invited talks and have received a significant amount of attention from scientific news outlets including Huffington Post, Popular Mechanics, EE Times, IEEE Spectrum, Optics & Photonics News Magazine, Laser Focus World, and Photonics Spectra Magazine. Prof. Jarrahi is a Fellow of, OSA, SPIE, and IOP societies and was a Distinguished Lecturer of IEEE, Traveling Lecturer of OSA, and Visiting Lecturer of SPIE societies. Her scientific achievements have been recognized by several international and national prestigious awards including the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Research Award from Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Moore Inventor Fellowship from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation Kavli Fellowship by the USA National Academy of Sciences (NAS), Grainger Foundation Frontiers of Engineering Award from the USA National Academy of Engineering (NAE) Breakthrough Award from Popular Mechanics Magazine, Research Award from Okawa Foundation; Early Career Award in Nanotechnology from the IEEE Nanotechnology Council, Outstanding Young Engineer Award from the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society, Booker Fellowship from the USA National Committee of the International Union of Radio Science, Lot Shafai Mid-Career Distinguished Achievement Award from the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society, Early Career Award from the USA National Science Foundation (NSF), Young Investigator Awards from the USA Office of Naval Research (ONR), the Army Research Office (ARO), and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Elizabeth C. Crosby Research Award from the University of Michigan, and Distinguished Alumni Award from the Sharif University of Technology.
