Dr. Stewart Jenkins

Former Project
Quantum Effects in Nanostructured Photonic Metamaterials

Short CV
Dr. Stewart Jenkins obtained his Ph.D. in Physics from the Georgia Institute of Technology (USA) in 2006, where he performed research in theoretical quantum and nonlinear optics with applications to quantum information. He has since held research posts at the University of Insubria (Como, Italy) and the Georgia Institute of Technology. He joined the School of Mathematics at the University of Southampton as a Research Fellow in 2010 where his work is focused on the theory of electromagnetic field interactions with metamaterials, including collective phenomena mediated by such interactions and quantum effects that may arise.
