Sculpting light in space and time with metamaterials

Light powers the global internet, enables deep-space and medical imaging, and sustains life on Earth. But how do we control something so fast and intangible?

Join Riccardo Sapienza, Professor of Physics, as he pushes the boundaries of what we can do with light, from metamaterials and ultra-thin lenses to manipulating it in space and time. Can light waves from the past and future interact? Can light scatter from superluminal modulations without breaking relativity? #ImperialInaugurals
