Biography:

Dr. Jeremy Munday received his B.S. in Physics and Astronomy from Middle Tennessee State University in 2003 and his Ph.D. in Physics from Harvard in 2008. His thesis work focused on the first experimental demonstration of a repulsive Casimir force and was conducted under the supervision of Federico Capasso. After this, he became a postdoctoral scholar under Harry Atwater in the departments of Applied Physics and Materials Science at Caltech working on plasmonics and photovoltaic devices.

His current research endeavors span a wide range from near field optics, photonics, and plasmonics for energy harvesting to quantum electromechanical phenomena for actuating micro- and nano-mechanical devices.

Dr. Munday is currently working to set up the Munday Lab with focus on nano-optics, quantum engineering, and energy harvesting.
