Join esteemed University of Surrey physicist, Professor Alf Adams, for an illustrated talk and live demonstration about the science behind today’s digital world.
Professor Alf Adams will discuss his groundbreaking work on the strained semiconductor laser and will reveal how, without his discovery, technology such as CD or DVD players – and even the internet – might not exist in their modern form today.
Professor Adams was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1996 and is the recipient of several prestigious honours and prizes, including the Rank Prize and a Duddell Medal and Prize. If you are interested in learning more about his pioneering work, be sure to book a place on this talk in advance.
