Alfred Ducharme
is a professor of optics and electrical engineering in the College of Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Central Florida. He received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Massachusetts - Lowell, and both a M.S. and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Central Florida - School of Optics (CREOL). Dr. Ducharme is the Program Coordinator for the 4-year undergraduate program in Photonics (BSEET-Photonics) offered by the Engineering Technology Department.
Glenn Boreman
served as the 2017 President of SPIE, and since 2011 is Chair of the Department of Physics & Optical Science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. He received the BS in Optics from the University of Rochester, and the PhD in Optics from the University of Arizona. From 1984 to 2011 he was on the faculty of the University of Central Florida. He has supervised 27 PhD students to completion. Prof. Boreman is coauthor of the graduate textbooks "Infrared Detectors and Systems" and "Infrared Antennas and Resonant Structures," and author of "Modulation Transfer Function in Optical & Electro-Optical Systems" and "Basic Electro-Optics for Electrical Engineers." He has published more than 200 journal articles in the areas of infrared sensors and materials, optics of random media, and image-quality assessment. He is a fellow of SPIE, IEEE, OSA, and the Military Sensing Symposium.
Menelaos Poutous
is an Assoc. Professor of Interdisciplinary Optics in the Department of Physics & Optical Science, University of North Carolina at Charlotte. He previously held a Principal Development Engineer’s position at Digital Optics Corporation, and before that, he was Lecturer with the Department of Physics at Emory University. He received his Doctorate from the School of Physics at Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta GA. He has been teaching Optics undergraduate and graduate courses of all levels for the last 25 years. His research interests are in spectroscopy, diffractive micro-optical elements, photo-lithographic fabrication processes, micro-optics in laser cavities and artificial optical surfaces. He is a senior member of SPIE.
