Prof. Jacob Scheuer is a Full Professor holding the Bernard L. Schwartz Chair in Nano-Scale Information Technology at Tel Aviv University's School of Electrical Engineering, where he leads the Nano-Photonics Laboratory and previously served as Head of the Department of Physical Electronics (2017-2021). His academic credentials include: BSc in Electrical Engineering (Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, 1993) BSc in Physics (Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, 1993) PhD in Electrical Engineering (Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, 2001) Professor Scheuer's research pioneers nanoscale light-matter interactions through advanced platforms including metasurfaces for full electromagnetic wave control (amplitude, phase, polarization), plasmonic systems , and lead-halide perovskite optoelectronics . His work bridges fundamental quantum phenomena with practical applications in AR/VR displays, secure communications, renewable energy harvesting, and ultra-precise sensing technologies. Current publication trends reveal intensive focus on metasurface engineering for broadband optical manipulation, particularly in anti-reflection technologies and multi-functional photonic components using scalable fabrication methods. His distinguished recognition includes: Election as Fellow of Optica (formerly Optical Society of America) Election as Fellow of SPIE (International Society for Optics and Photonics) Professor Scheuer actively mentors graduate researchers in the Nano-Photonics Laboratory, with recent success including a Rothschild fellowship recipient (Yael) for postdoctoral work. The lab maintains strong industry partnerships, exemplified by NVIDIA's technical collaboration visit. Operating from Tel Aviv University's new Nano building, the laboratory drives innovation in metasurface applications for next-generation optical systems and perovskite-based tunable light sources across the visible spectrum with implications for solar energy conversion.
