معرفی
Romain Fleury is an Associate Professor at the Laboratory of Wave Engineering (LWE), part of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) School of Engineering and Institute of Electrical and Micro Engineering (IEL). He earned a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin in 2015 under Andrea Alù, followed by a Marie-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship at ESPCI Paris-Tech and CNRS Langevin Institute (2016). His research explores wave physics and engineering, focusing on topological insulators, nonreciprocal wave propagation, and time-modulated metamaterials. He has co-authored over 70 peer-reviewed articles in journals like Science, Nature, and Physical Review series, with recent work on topological acoustics, active metamaterials, and wave-based analog computing.
Dr. Fleury received the Eccellenza Grant (2021) from the Swiss National Science Foundation and an ERC Starting Grant (2022). He co-founded Minwave, a startup selling miniaturized microwave devices patented by his lab, which has garnered awards such as ESA-BIC CH, FIT, and Venture Kick. He has served as Technical Program Committee Chair for Eucap 2019 and on the Editorial Board of the New Journal of Physics. Recognized for teaching excellence with the STI Polysphere Award (2019) and IEL Best Teacher Award, he teaches courses including Electromagnetics, Antennas, and Advanced Photonics.
His work bridges fundamental wave physics with applied technologies, emphasizing topological effects, nonlinear systems, and metamaterials. Collaborations span institutions such as ESPCI Paris, University of Texas at Austin, and University of Vienna, with applications in acoustic imaging, 5G antennas, and optical signal processing. His recent publications highlight ultrafast anti-lasing, reconfigurable metasurfaces, and disorder-assisted photonic crystals, reflecting a career dedicated to advancing wave engineering through topological and nonreciprocal designs.
