significant contributions to the field of optics or photonics.

This year the 2019 ICO/ICTP Gallieno Denardo Award is shared by:

Muhammad Faryad, LUMS Department of Physics Lahore, Pakistan“For his 
contributions to the understanding of light interaction with 
nanostructured materials, and applications in the area of optical 
surface waves, solar cells, optical metamaterials and the modelling of 
wave propagation in the nanostructured mediums.”

and

Christian Tomas Schmiegelow Universidad de Buenos Aires Balboa, 
Argentina, “For his contributions to the field of quantum optics and 
light-matter interaction, and in particular the demonstration of 
transfer of optical orbital momentum to bound electrons and studies on 
interaction of twisted light with trapped ions.”

During the ceremony, the prize winners will deliver the following lectures:

Muhammad Faryad: "Surface multiplasmonics: Fundamentals and applications 
to optical sensing"

Christian Tomas Schmiegelow: "Spectroscopy with twisted light. Or: How 
ions learnt to stop worrying and love the twist"

The ceremony will be livestreamed at http://www.ictp.it/livestream

You are all most welcome to attend.
