2019 China’s top 10 optical breakthroughs released

Chinese Laser Press, a press hosted by Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Science (SIOM, CAS), and the Chinese Optical Society, released the 2019 Award for China’s Top 10 Optical Breakthroughs.

My work in China began in July 2017 in Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics situated in Jiading, very green, beautiful and quiet part of Shanghai city. Since the research topic concerns special optical features of nanostructures, their study involved many methods of material preparation, characterization and optical probing. I met a cohesive team of scientists performing together investigations of two-dimensional nanostructures and development of new nonlinear optical materials and...

Dr. ABEL KAMAGARA

It all started when I conceived an idea of pursuing further graduate studies after my masters degree. To cut the long short, after a year or so of waiting I received the marverous news of being one of the receipients of the prestitigious World Academy of Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences president’s fellowsip for international doctoral students. Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM), Chinese Academy of Sciences was to be my host institute majoring in optical engineering ...
