About

Dr. Jae-Kyung Kim is a leading figure in nanophotonics and metasurface optics, renowned for pioneering full-space structured light technologies. Their most cited work, "Metasurface-driven full-space structured light for three-dimensional imaging" (2022, 233 citations), revolutionizes depth-sensing by replacing conventional diffractive optical elements with ultrathin metasurfaces, dramatically expanding the field-of-view and enabling compact, high-performance 3D imaging systems. This breakthrough addresses critical limitations in augmented reality, autonomous navigation, and biomedical imaging. Dr. Kim’s broader research integrates inverse design and topological photonics to control light across both transmission and reflection spaces, achieving unprecedented wavefront manipulation. With over 3,500 total citations and an h-index of 28, their contributions have been recognized by the prestigious Young Scientist Award from the Optical Society of Korea and multiple invited talks at international conferences. Dr. Kim’s work not only advances fundamental metasurface physics but also delivers practical solutions for next-generation sensing and display technologies, making them a pivotal innovator in the field.
