Nanomechanical metamaterials driven by ultrasound
Short CV
Dimitrios obtained his 4-year Degree in Physics and his 2-year master degree in Nanotechnology from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (Greece) in 2011 and 2016 respectively. From 2016 to 2017 he was a research associate for the same institution. He joined the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) as a PhD student in September 2017 and defended his thesis "Nonlinear, Sensing and Switching Functionalities of Nano-optomechanical Metamaterials" in March 2022.
