Andrews, David L.

Über Autor(innen)

David L. Andrews leads research on fundamentalmolecular photonics and energy transport, optomechanical forces andnonlinear optical phenomena. He has over 160 research papers andalso eight books to his name - including the widely adoptedtextbook Lasers in Chemistry. The current focus of his researchgroup is on novel mechanisms for optical nanomanipulation andswitching, and light-harvesting in nanostructured molecularsystems. The group enjoys strong international links, particularlywith groups in Canada, Lithuania, New Zealand and the UnitedStates. Andrews is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, anda Fellow of the Institute of Physics, and he is the inaugural Chairof the SPIE Nanotechnology Technical Group.
