  • New Trends in Nanophotonics
    Nanophotonics 2020; 9(5): 983–985 Editorial New trends in nanophotonics https://doi.org/10.1515/nanoph-2020-0170 Nanophotonics considers the complex interactions between light and matter at the sub-wavelength scale. Recent pro- gress in nanophotonics has revealed unprecedented optical phenomena, which have opened up the novel and rapidly developing fields of metamaterials, photonic crystals, and plasmonics. The last few decades have seen explosive growth in this field, from fundamental research to applications including condensed-matter physics, quantum pho- tonics, near-field/far-field optics, biochemical sensing, deep learning for nanophotonic design, and nanofabrication/ nanomanufacturing. The International Conference on Metamaterials, Photonic Crystals, and Plasmonics (META) is an annual conference of researchers in metamaterials, nanophotonics, and other closely related topics. It covers a broad range of topics including, but not limited to, metasurfaces, meta-devices, topological effects in optics, two-dimensional materials, light-matter interaction in nano-cavities, plasmonic circuits, thermal engineering, and quantum photonic systems. The latest conference, META’19, was held in Lisbon, Portugal (July 23–26, 2019), where the latest trends and recent progress in nanophotonics were discussed to provide further insights for researchers. This special issue introduces a selection of cutting-edge original research and review papers from the conference. Metasurfaces can manipulate the optical properties of light with the ultrathin materials. Two groups review this topic in detail in this issue. Wei et al. [1] focus on the recent research progress in metasurfaces for holographic displays, polarization conversion, active modulation, and linear and nonlinear modulation; the authors discuss in detail the working principle and advantages of metasurfaces and provide many specific applications.

    February 2021 SR. CRYOGENIC THERMAL ENGINEER/PHYSICIST Boston Area, MA Giving everyone in the world access to clean, reliable, affordable energy will require substantial expansion of global electricity transmission networks. VEIR is developing a new generation of High Temperature Superconductor (HTS)-based transmission lines, enabling long distance, reliable, low loss, cost–effective power transfer in far smaller right–of–ways. VEIR’s innovations overcome the main barriers to transmission expansion, enabling the world to access the very lowest cost renewable power. The Sr. Cryogenic Thermal Engineer/Physicist will be responsible for building the team to research, design, develop and test VEIR’s cryogenic thermal management subsystems (including all components responsible for heat exchange). DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES: • Lead the development and utilization of engineering analysis, models, and simulation tools to improve the performance, reliability, lifetime, and cost of VEIR cryogenic thermal management subsystems and associated components • Lead the iterative design, build, and experimental testing of VEIR cryogenic subsystem and component prototypes • Lead the review, interpretation, and visualization of experimental data on cryogenic subsystems; use data to validate and improve thermal models and strategically plan subsequent prototype design iterations and experimental campaigns • Supervise a small team of engineers and technicians (2-3 direct reports initially); help build team • Collaborate with broader VEIR team to integrate thermal

Visit our website for the current list of titles. www.witpress.com WITeLibrary Home of the Transactions of the Wessex Institute, the WIT electronic-library provides the international scientific community with immediate and permanent access to individual papers presented at WIT conferences. Visit the WIT eLibrary at http://library.witpress.com International Series on Developments in Heat Transfer Objectives The Developments in Heat Transfer book Series publishes state-of-the-art books and provides valuable contributions to the literature in the field of heat transfer. The overall aim of the Series is to bring to the attention of the international community recent advances in heat transfer by authors in academic research and the engineering industry. Research and development in heat transfer is of significant importance to many branches of technology, not least in energy technology. Developments include new, efficient heat exchangers, novel heat transfer equipment as well as the introduction of systems of heat exchangers in industrial processes. Application areas include heat recovery in the chemical and process industries, and buildings and dwelling houses where heat transfer plays a major role. Heat exchange combined with heat storage is also a methodology for improving the energy efficiency in industry, while cooling in gas turbine systems and combustion engines is another important area of heat transfer research. To progress developments within the field both basic and applied research is needed. Advances in numerical solution methods of partial differential equations, high-speed, efficient and cheap computers, advanced experimental methods using LDV (laser-doppler-velocimetry), PIV (particle-image-velocimetry) and image processing of thermal pictures of liquid crystals, have all led to dramatic advances during recent years in the solution and investigation of complex problems within the field.
