Summary[edit]

Description

NSB and NSF presented annual awards to honor outstanding research and public service contributions at an evening ceremony at the U.S. State Department on May 5, 2015. NSF Director France Córdova introduced Andrea Alú, the recipient of the 2015 Alan T. Waterman award. Alú was recognized “for his work in metamaterial theory and design including insightful contributions to plasmonic cloaking; effective light manipulation at the nano scale; innovative ideas in breaking time reversal symmetry leading to enhanced non-reciprocity from acoustics to microwaves and optics; and for unique contributions to metamaterials.” The Waterman award, established in 1975 and named for NSF’s first director, recognizes an outstanding young researcher in any field of science or engineering supported by NSF.
