I am very interested in pursuing graduate studies in the emerging field of plasmonics and metamaterials, I really love electrodynamics and EM propagation, and since I started doing a project on plasmonics and metamaterials, I knew that is what I wanted, what graduate schools in USA do you recommend me to apply to?. I am currently a first year Msc student in Russia.

I heard Duke has a pretty distinguished department for Metamaterials. If I'm not wrong, they recently created a cloaking device that bends microwaves, and it was featured in the NYT.

Below's the link to the department:

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Should I submit 860 PGRE?'

Hi everyone! I'm a senior majoring in physics, math, and music, and I'm currently in the process applying for theoretical and computational biophysics (primarily thru physics departments) Ph.D. programs. I have a 4.0 from a basically unknown school in the American South, two REUs (T50 and T25) in computational biophysics and two semesters of research in optics (one purely experimental, one comp/exp) at my home institution (since there aren't any biophysics profs at my school), but no...
