Nader Engheta and Firooz Aflatouni of Penn Electrical and Systems Engineering have developed a new chip that can perform the math required to train AI at the speed of light. The new chip radically reduces energy consumption while increasing processing speed: bit.ly/3SGJANs #Innovation

Tonight is the Persian New Year, marked by the spring equinox at exactly 11:06 PM EDT. This festive event is celebrated in Iran and other Farsi-speaking countries. The special table for this event, which you see in the photo, is prepared by Susanne Engheta. Happy Nowruz to all!

I am honored and excited to be one of the speakers at the TEDxPenn conference at the University of Pennsylvania on Saturday, April 6, 2024. #tedxpenn, #TEDx , #ideasworthsharing , #Philadelphia , TEDxPenn instagram.com/p/C4a3umpuhYj/…

Our recent work on Metamaterials for optical analog computing is featured in the research news of the online publication Physics, by the American Physical Society. Many thank to Matteo Rini for this news article. physics.aps.org/articles/v17/52

Many thanks to my dear friend, Mohammed Th. Hassan, for his kind invitation to me to give a colloquium in his department. I had a great chance to learn about his elegant and pioneering research on #attomicroscopy. Merging #metamaterials with #attomicroscopy will be very exciting.

Our work has been selected for the cover of the Optics and Photonics News (OPN) in December 2024. This work, which is about vector-matrix multiplication at the speed of light, has been chosen by the OPN as one of the highlights and breakthroughs of optics in this past year.

Many thanks to Professor @RomainQuidant for this interview.

The 632nm hosts interviewed me on September 21, 2024, covering various topics ranging from my research journey, my fascination with wave physics, scientific curiosity, optics and AI, and more. Check this link: youtu.be/yS2EHl4iH4c?t=… Many thanks to the 632nm hosts, Dr.

A metastructure that designs metastructures: We have built this metastructure that can operate as a programmable wave-based analog computing machine, performing reconfigurable matrix inversion, root finding, and constrained optimization/inverse design. Our paper was published pic.x.com/sh5Em2YVzT

Happy Persian New Year! This year, the spring equinox happens at exactly 5:01 AM EDT, Thursday, March 20, 2025, and that is the Persian New Year, the beginning of spring. The special table for the Nowruz event, shown in these photos, is prepared by my wife, Susanne Engheta.

Our most recent work, published in Nature Communications. In this work, we presented an idea for “freezing”, amplifying, and then “thawing” electromagnetic waves using temporal non-Foster metastructures. For more details, please see: Victor Pacheco-Pena, Yasaman Kiasat, Diego
