Wei E.I. Sha received the B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electronic engineering at Anhui University, Hefei, China, in 2003 and 2008, respectively. From July 2008 to May 2012, he was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Hong Kong, where he is now a Research Assistant Professor. Dr. Sha has co-authored 2 books respectively on wavelet theory and finite-difference time-domain method. He has published 66 peer-reviewed journal papers included in Web of Science Core Collection; and contributed to 4 book chapters at Springer (2), CRC Press (1) and InTech (1) Publishers. He is an IEEE member and an OSA member. He has served as the committee member or session chair of several international conferences including PIERS 2016, ICCEM 2016, IMWS-AMP 2015, EICT 2015, ICSPS 2011, etc. He has been serving as the reviewers of IEEE, OSA, AIP, APS and Nature Publishing Group journals. He also served as the book proposal reviewers for CRC Press and Bentham Science publishers. He received the Second Prize and First Prize of National Postgraduates Mathematical Contest in Modeling, respectively in 2006 and 2007. He was awarded Chinese Youth Science and Technology Innovation Prize in 2007. He and his collaborators received Research Output Prize at the University of Hong Kong in 2013. In 2015, he was awarded the Second Prize of Natural Science from Anhui Province Government. He and his students received Second Place of Best Student Paper at PIERS 2014, First Place of Best Student Paper at ACES 2014, and Best Student Paper at NCMMW 2015. In 2014, he was awarded Outstanding Reviewer of Journal of Computational Physics. He engages in theoretical and computational research in electromagnetics and optics, focused on the multiphysics and interdisciplinary research. The research topic is inspired by applications in several areas including solar energy, microwave/optical communication, sensing/detection, and quantum information. His research involves fundamental and applied aspects in plasmonics, emerging photovoltaics, metasurfaces, quantum electrodynamics, and computational electromagnetics.
