Willem Vos
Willem Lambertus Vos (born August 30, 1964,
Amstelveen ) is a Dutch
scientist . He is Professor of
Physics at the
University of Twente and former group leader at the
Institute for Atomic and Molecular Physics "''[http://www.amolf.nl AMOLF]''" In 2004, with his group members,
Peter Lodahl et al. they succeeded in controlling the pace of
light emission , varying from a light drizzle to a rainstorm. In the process, the team has verified a 1987 prediction of American physicist
Eli Yablonovitch that ignited a worldwide rush to build tiny "chips" that control light beams. The achievement of Dr. Lodahl and a team of physicists and chemists was reported on in ''
Nature '' (430). Researchers say it has many potential uses, not only as a tool for controlling
quantum optical systems, but also in efficient miniature
laser s for
display device s and
telecommunications , in
solar cell s, and even in future
quantum computer s.
