Speaker: Yang Yang Li, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Department of Physics and Materials Science City University of Hong Kong Abstract: This talk focuses on one major challenge present in the field of nanomaterials, which is on how to achieve elaborate nanostructures (e.g., photonic structures) on a large (e.g., industrial) scale with sufficient precision and low cost. Here we present economical bottom-up approaches to fabricate nanomaterials with structural precision, good scalability, and desirable properties, particularly promising for energy and environmental applications. Our approaches build on the well-established electrochemical techniques, applicable to a wide range of materials and functions, e.g., to fabricate nanoporous metallic films with flexible porosity profiles (e.g., sine waves) along the film thickness direction, or to modify metal oxides.

Title: Advanced RF Acceleration

Abstract: For decades conventional RF accelerators have been built and operated with ever increasing capability thru a few tens of gigahertz in frequency. More recent research takes advantage of the continuing development of high peak power short pulse lasers to drive accelerator structures at optical frequencies. This jump from RF to optical frequencies skips four orders of magnitude in wavelength. With recent experiments that demonstrate high gradients in metallic structures at millimeter wavelengths one is compelled to consider the viability of new approaches for acceleration in the millimeterwave to...
