Prof. Ady Arie, Lab Director
Prof. Ady Arie received his B.Sc. degree in Mathematics and Physics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1983. In 1986 and 1992 he received his M.Sc. degree in Physics and Ph.D. degree in Engineering from Tel-Aviv University. Between 1991 and 1993 he was a Wolfson and Fulbright postdoctoral scholar in the group of Prof. Robert L. Byer at Ginzton Laboratory, Stanford University, U.S.A. In 1993 he joined the Dept. of Physical Electronics, School of Electrical Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering, Tel-Aviv University. Since 2006 he is a Professor of Electrical Engineering. Prof. Arie was the vice dean for Research of the Faculty of Engineering in the years 2011-2013. In the years 2013-2017 he served as the Head of the School of Electrical Engineering. Currently, he is the Head of the TAU Center for Light Matter Interaction, http://www3.tau.ac.il/lmi/. In the years 2008-2014 he was a topical editor of Optics Letters and since 2018 he is an associate editor in Optica. Prof. Arie is a Senior Member of IEEE, Chair of the Israel Section of IEEE-Photonics, and a Fellow of the Optical Society of America. Since 2015 he holds the Marko and Lucie Chaoul Chair in Nano-Photonics. In 2016 he won the Kadar Family Award for Outstanding Research

Guy joined the lab in November 2021 as an M.Sc student in Physics. He holds a B.Sc in Physics and economics from the Tel Aviv University. His research focuses on nonlinear and quantum optics.
Ofir Yesharim
Ofir joined the lab in November 2018 as an M.Sc student. He holds a B.Sc in Electrical Engineering from the Technion. During his B.Sc he worked as a physics research assistant at a bio-medical company, studying the distribution of electric fields inside the human body. His research focuses on nonlinear optics.
Dolev Roitman, PhD student,
rdolev@gmail.com
Dolev joined the lab at March 2019 as a PhD student in physics. He completed a B.Sc in Physics and Geophysics(in honor), as well as M.Sc in high intensity lasers and plasma physics at Tel Aviv University. His M.Sc research was completed under the supervision of Dr. Ishay Pomerantz, in which he developed a high-intensity solid target irradiation setup that works at a high repetition rate and investigated accelerated electrons from such interactions. During his last year of M.Sc Dolev worked in Eyeway Vision Ltd., developing and analyzing optical setups for mixed reality technology. His PhD research focuses on improving the resolution of electron microscopes using thin phase masks.
Zihao Pang, PhD student
Zihao joined the lab in October 2021 as a Ph.D. student. He received his B.Sc degree in Information Engineering in 2018 at South China Normal University, and then got his M.Sc degree in Optics in 2021 at Zhejiang University. Zihao is interested in physical phenomena of incoherent waves in various systems and currently is focusing his research on nonlinear optics.
Dr. Gil Bashan, Postdoc student
Dr. Gil Bashan received the B.Sc. degree in physics and electrical engineering from Bar-Ilan University in 2016, and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the same University in 2018 and 2022, respectively. He is currently a post-doctoral fellow at the group of Prof. Ady Arie at Tel-Aviv University. His research interests include optical fiber propagation effects, opto-mechanics and quantum optics. Dr. Bashan received the Bar-Ilan University Rector Award for excellence in graduate studies in 2018. In 2020 he was awarded the Adams Fellowship for doctoral studies by the Israel National Academy of Sciences and Humanities.
