Mindaugas Juodėnas
I am a Senior Researcher at the Institute of Materials Science, Kaunas University of Technology. My work focuses on plasmonics and nanophotonics for optical metasurface design and nanofabrication.
Research Interests
- Optical Metasurfaces
- Finite element modeling and Fourier analysis of metasurfaces and light propagation
- Nanofabrication of photonic devices for bioimaging and biosensing
- Nanoparticle self-assembly and plasmonic properties of regular nanostructures
- Self-assembly processes employing capillary force and structured templates
- Coupled nanophotonics systems for light generation and sensing
- Nanofabrication
- High-throughput electron beam lithography
- Advanced reactive ion etching processes
Current Project
Gradient Metasurfaces for Ultrafast Laser Beam Shaping (M-ULBS)
