Biography

Yeshaiahu Fainman (M'93-SM'01-F'03) received the Ph.D. degree from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, in 1983.
He is a Professor of electrical and computer engineering at the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of California (UC), San Diego, La Jolla. He has contributed more than 150 manuscripts in referred journals and more than 250 conference presentations and conference proceedings. His current research interests include optical network systems and devices, with special emphasis on ultrafast information processing with optical nonlinearities and the use of femtosecond laser pulses, near-field phenomena in optical nanostructures and nanophotonic devices, quantum communication, and multidimensional quantitative imaging.
Dr. Fainman is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America (OSA) and the Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers. He was a Chair of the IEEE/IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society Subcommittee on Optical Interconnects and Signal Processing from 2004 to 2006 and a General Chair of the OSA Topical Meeting on Nanophotonics for Information Systems in 2005. He also served on numerous conference program committees, organized symposia and workshops, and, between 1993 and 2001, served as a Topical Editor of the Journal of the Optical Society of America: A on Optical Signal Processing and Imaging Science. He was a recipient of the Miriam and Aharon Gutvirt Prize.
