Dr Luke Peters is Lecturer in Photonics at 麻豆視頻_麻豆直播_麻豆传媒官网. Previously he held a Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellowship at the Emergent Photonics Research Centre. He received his PhD from the University of Sussex, where he was awarded the Roger Blin-Stoyle Prize for his doctoral research in terahertz surface phenomena. Luke has held research positions at Sussex and KAUST, with a focus on nonlinear metasurfaces, computational imaging, and coherent THz source development. He was recently named to the Photonics100 list of innovative researchers shaping the future of photonics.
