the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics granted Young Scientist Prize to Iranian scientist Mohsen Rahmani.
Dr. Mohsen Rahmani won the 2017 IUPAP Young Scientist Prize in Laser Physics and Photonics (Fundamental Aspects) for his outstanding contributions to light-matter interactions at nanoscale, particularly nonlinear nanophotonics via metallic, dielectric and semiconductor nanostructures and metasurfaces, which have paved the road for extending nonlinear optics to nanoscale.
Rahmani is currently an Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Research Award holder at the Australian National University, Canberra Australia. Until recently he was a research associate at the Blackett Laboratory, Imperial College London, United Kingdom; following a PhD from the National University of Singapore, Singapore (2013).
