Wenshan Cai Dr. Wenshan Cai is a jointly appointed Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and the Materials Science and Engineering departments at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Education and Career[edit]
Cai joined the faculty of the Georgia Institute of Technology in January 2012 as an Associate Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering, with a joint appointment in Materials Science and Engineering. Prior to this, he was a postdoctoral fellow in the Geballe Laboratory for Advanced Materials at Stanford University. His scientific research is in the area of nanophotonic materials and devices. In particular his work focuses on the evolving field of plasmonics and metamaterials. Dr. Cai has published more than 50 papers in peer-reviewed journals, and the total citations of his recent papers have reached approximately 10,000 within the past 10 years. He authored the book, Optical Metamaterials: Fundamentals and Applications, which is used as a textbook at many universities around the world. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from Tsinghua University in 2000 and 2002, respectively, and his Ph.D. from Purdue University in 2008, all in electrical/electronic engineering. He has graduated two students. One of them is an assistant professor at Texas A & M University Engineering.
Research[edit]
Beyond metamaterials and plasmonics, Cai has branched into a variety of optical technologies including electric-field induced second harmonic generation, 2D materials, and ultra-fast spectroscopy.
