Batson Institute for Advanced Materials, Devices and Nanotechnology, Rutgers University; email [email protected]. Batson is a research professor at the Institute for Advanced Materials, Devices and Nanotechnology, with appointments in Physics and Astronomy, and Materials Science at Rutgers University. He is retired from the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center, where he pioneered spatially resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy in STEM, with studies of surface plasmon scattering in metal nanoparticle systems. He was also the first to demonstrate sub-Angstrom resolution using aberration correction optics, and he is currently using this capability to investigate plasmonic forces in nanometer-sized metal particles. Alexandra Boltasseva School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Purdue University, Birck Nanotechnology Center, West Lafayette, IN 47907-2057, USA; tel. 765-494 0301; and email [email protected]. Boltasseva is an assistant professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Birck Nanotechnology Center, Purdue University, and an adjunct associate professor in the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). She received her PhD degree in electrical engineering at DTU in 2004. Alexandra specializes in nanophotonics, nanofabrication, plasmonics, and metamaterials. She received the Young Elite-Researcher Award from the Danish Council for Independent Research in 2008, the Young Researcher Award in Advanced Optical Technologies from the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany in 2009, and the Technology Review Top Young Innovator Award TR35 Award in 2011. She is a topical editor for Optics Letters and the Journal of Optics, a senior member of the OSA, and a member of IEEE, SPIE, and MRS. Toon Coenen FOM Institute AMOLF, Amsterdam, The Netherlands; email [email protected]. Coenen studied chemistry and physics at the University of Utrecht, where he graduated in 2010 after doing research at the FOM Institute AMOLF in Amsterdam on the development of angle-resolved cathodoluminescence spectroscopy. He is currently working as a graduate student at AMOLF. His studies focus on the optical properties of metallic and dielectric nanostructures using cathodoluminescence spectroscopy. Zubin Jacob University of Alberta, Canada; email [email protected]. Jacob is an assistant professor of ECE at the University of Alberta, Canada. Prior to that, he completed his PhD degree at Purdue University (2010), where he received the Dmitri N. Chorafas Best Dissertation Prize for his work on classical and quantum optics of hyperbolic metamaterials. He completed his MAEE (2006) and MSEE (2007) from Princeton University and a B.Tech in electrical engineering (2004) from the Indian Institute of Technology–Bombay, India. He has received many awards for his research, including the SPIE Graduate Fellowship Award for potential long range contributions to optics and optical engineering (2008) and the IEEE Photonics Society Fellowship (2010).
