Purdue ECE professors named to 2022 Highly Cited Researchers list
Three Purdue Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering faculty have earned designations on Clarivate’s 2022 list of Highly Cited Researchers.
Highly Cited Researchers™ have demonstrated significant and broad influence reflected in their publication of multiple highly cited papers over the last decade. The Highly Cited Researchers 2022 list helps identify that small fraction of the researcher population that contributes disproportionately to extending the frontiers of knowledge and gaining for society innovations that make the world healthier, richer, more sustainable and more secure.
This is the third consecutive year Alexandra Boltasseva, the Ron and Dotty Garvin Tonjes Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Vlad Shalaev, Bob and Anne Burnett Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering were named to the list.
Boltasseva was recognized for cross-field impact. She specializes in nanophotonics, optical metamaterials and quantum photonics. Shalaev was recognized for his impact in the field of physics. He specializes in nanophotonics, plasmonics, and optical metamaterials.
Alexander Kildishev, professor in the Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, is the newest addition to the list and was recognized for cross-field impact. His research focuses on modeling of nanophotonics devices, optical metamaterials and transformation optics.
The Highly Cited Researchers’ names are drawn from the publications that rank in the top 1 percent by citations for field and publication year in the Web of Science citation index, and the list identifies the research institutions and countries where they are based.
