  • The Hector Fellow Academy offers you the opportunity to realize a self-developed research project under supervision Prof. Martin Wegener. He is one of the Hector Fellows, a community of outstanding professors from different research institutions across Germany working in STEM-subjects, medicine, and psychology.
    His research interests are photonic crystals and artificial materials called „metamaterials“. Tailoring their "meta-atoms" in the nano- or micrometer scale makes it possible to produce completely new physical properties, which do not naturally occur. For example, his team succeeded in building cloaking devices in various physical systems.
