The second International Workshop on Metamaterials-by-Design: Theory, Methods, and Applications to Communications and Sensing (www.2015-metamaterials-workshop.eu) will be aimed at presenting a comprehensive overview of the latest advances and emerging trends in the theory, methods, and the Communications and Sensing applications of the Material-by-Design paradigm, and it will highlight the current status and the envisaged frontiers in this research area.
The topics of main interest will include, but will not limited to, task-oriented materials and wave manipulation devices, reconfigurable and tunable metamaterials at microwave, THz, and optical frequencies, homogenization of metamaterials and effective medium models, three-dimensional metamaterials, planar metamaterials and meta-surfaces, active metamaterials, quantum metamaterials, antenna applications of metamaterials, metamaterials for nanoelectronics and nanophotonics and metatronics, metamaterials for sensing, biological and biomedical applications of metamaterials, novel metamaterial concepts, experimental techniques and characterization of metamaterials, and their applications to current and future Communication and Sensing systems.
The Workshop will comprise 6 presentations from distinguished experts from international top institutions as well as peer-reviewed contributions. Additionally, round tables will be organized at the end of each day to stimulate the open discussion among the presenters and the attendees.
