Soham Saha is the 2022 Maria Goeppert Mayer Fellow working at Center for Nanoscale Materials at  Argonne National Laboratory. He earned his PhD in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University. His research focuses on the development of optical materials and metasurfaces for XUV and soft X-ray generation via High Harmonic Generation in solids. He specializes in active nanophotonics, nonlinear optics, all-optical switching, low-loss waveguides, and modulators employing materials, including silicon, lithium niobate, transition-metal nitrides, transparent conducting oxides, and traditional noble metals. His awards include the Chorafas Award, Society of Vacuum Coaters Scholarship and the SPIE (the International Society for Optics and Photonics) Education Scholarship.
