About
Ho Wai Howard Lee is a leading figure in nanophotonics and metasurface optics, with a focus on on-chip generation and manipulation of structured light. His major contributions center on integrating metasurfaces with optoelectronic platforms, enabling unprecedented control of optical wavefronts at subwavelength scales. This work has paved the way for ultracompact, planar optical devices—such as lenses, waveplates, and holograms—that outperform conventional bulky optics. His highly cited 2021 paper, “On‐Chip Generation of Structured Light Based on Metasurface Optoelectronic Integration” (88 citations), exemplifies his impact by demonstrating a scalable approach to generating complex light patterns directly on a chip, a breakthrough for applications in imaging, sensing, and quantum optics. Lee’s research has garnered significant attention, with his work cited over 1,000 times, reflecting its influence in advancing flat optics and integrated photonics. He is also recognized for his contributions to plasmonics and nonlinear optics, and his achievements include multiple awards and invited talks at major international conferences. For students and researchers, Lee’s work offers a compelling vision of how metasurfaces can revolutionize light-based technologies from the nanoscale up.
