Members of our team, Ekaterina Ponkratova, Artem Larin, Elena Petrova and Martin Sandomirskii, took part in the METANANO school on nanophotonics and advanced materials, held on October 13–26, 2024, in Qingdao, China. They presented their work at the poster session.
The school provided a platform for researchers, students and industry representatives wishing to learn about the latest advances in nanophotonics and advanced materials. The program included lectures, hands-on seminars and poster sessions covering dielectric nanophotonics, advanced materials for photonics, chiral and bianisotropic metasurfaces and perovskite nanophotonics. Special congratulations to Martin Sandomirskii, who received the best poster award for his work «Hybrid gold–silicon submicrosponges: laser fabrication and characterization». The school was a great opportunity to make professional contacts and start new collaborations with leading specialists in nanophotonics, advanced materials, optoelectronics and related fields.
