معرفی
Professor Juejun Hu is the John F. Elliott Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at MIT. He leads the Photonic Materials Research Group, focusing on novel materials and devices for photonics, including optical phase change materials, meta-optics, and flexible photonics. His work spans applications in sensing, imaging, and communication systems.
Education: B.S. from Tsinghua University (2004), Ph.D. from MIT (2009). Prior to MIT, he was an assistant professor at the University of Delaware (2010–2014). He is a Fellow of the American Ceramics Society, Optica, and SPIE.
Research Interests: Development of reconfigurable optical devices, including metalenses and phase-change materials for non-volatile photonics. Key projects include compact sensors for industrial and biomedical applications, and chip-scale optical isolators.
Awards: Vittorio Gottardi Prize (2020), SPIE Early Career Achievement Award (2019), Robert L. Coble Award (2017), NSF CAREER Award (2015).
Grants & Advising: Advised over 100 students and postdocs. Active in research grants involving phase-change materials, silicon photonics, and integrated optics.
Labs: Directs the Photonic Materials Group, teaching courses like MIT 3.071 (Amorphous Materials), 3.022 (Microstructural Evolution), and 3.156 (Photonic Materials and Devices).
