Progress in Nanophotonics 5 (eBook)

Takashi Yatsui received his B.E. degree from Keio University, Tokyo, Japan in 1995 and M.E. and D.E. degrees from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tokyo, Japan in 1997 and 2000, respectively. From 1999 to 2000, he was a Research Fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. From 2000 to 2008, he was a Researcher at the Japan Science and Technology Agency, Tokyo. In 2008, he joined the University of Tokyo as an Associate Professor. His current research interests include nanofabrication using optical near-field and its application to nanophotonics. Dr. Yatsui received 1st prize in Paper Contest from IEEE Student Branch at Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1998, Excellent Research Presentation award from the Japan Society of Applied Physics in 2000, Tejima Doctoral Dissertation Award from the Tejima Foundation in 2001, the Gottfried Wagener Prize 2010, Osaka University Kondo Prize 2012, and Erlangen Innovation Award Optical Technologies 2012.
