Prof. dr. Ewold Verhagen

Prof. dr. Ewold Verhagen leads the new research group Photonic Forces at the FOM Institute AMOLF. His group studies photonics in high-quality microcavities and nanophotonic waveguides, with a special interest in the coupling between light and nanomechanical motion through radiation pressure forces in nanophotonic systems. In 2014, he was awarded the NWO Vidi grant to perform quantum measurements in nano-optomechanical systems.
