Mer om författaren

Robert R. Alfano, Distinguished Professor of Science and Engineering at The City College of the City University of New York, has contributed significantly to the field of ultrafast laser science, discovered the supercontinuum in 1970 and continues research to date, and is a pioneer in the application of light and development of new tunable Cr3+/Cr4+ lasers, advance of laser spectroscopic and optical imaging techniques for condensed matter, biomedical photonics, optical biopsy, and study of ultrafast optical pulse propagation and imaging in scattering media. He is a fellow of APS, OSA, IEEE, NY Academy of Science, and is an Alfred P. Sloan fellow. He received his PhD in physics from New York University and spent 8 years at GTE Labs (now Verizon) before joining CCNY. Prof. Alfano received the OSA Charles Hard Townes Award in 2008, the SPIE Britton Chance Biomedical Optics Award in 2012, the APS Arthur L Schawlow Prize in Laser Science in 2013, OSA Michael S. Feld Award for Biophotonics in 2016, and SPIES Gold Medal in 2019.
