Ognjen Ilic received his B.A. degree in physics and mathematics from Harvard University and his Ph.D. degree in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, working with Marin Soljačić and John Joannopoulos. His research interests lie at the intersection of nanoscale photonics, radiative heat transfer, and thermal radiation phenomena in nanophotonic structures.
