Jeeban Kumar Nayak has been awarded a 2024 Optics and Photonics Scholarship by SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, for potential contributions to optics, photonics, or a related field.
Nayak is a Senior Research Fellow in the Bio-Optics and Nanophotonics Lab at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Kolkata (India), specializing in optics and photonics. “My primary research interest is investigating spin-orbit interactions of light in nanostructures,” said Nayak. “Additionally, I am working on developing various microscopy and sensing technologies with potential applications in biomedical research, chemical sciences, and metrology. The Optics and Photonics Scholarship from SPIE will greatly enhance my enthusiasm for pursuing a career in photonics and provide significant support for my future endeavors.”
This month, the Society is awarding $303,000 in scholarships to 72 outstanding SPIE Student Members, based on their potential contribution to optics and photonics, or a related discipline. Successful applicants were evaluated, selected, and approved by the SPIE Scholarship Committee, chaired by SPIE Senior Member Brian Primeau.
