  • 1975 - Fellow of American Physical Society (APS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Electron
  • Optics

Akira Hasegawa mainly investigates Optics, Soliton, Optical fiber, Plasma and Dispersion. The Soliton study combines topics in areas such as Guiding center, Nonlinear Schrödinger equation, Schrödinger equation and Self-phase modulation. His studies in Optical fiber integrate themes in fields like Modulational instability, Nonlinear optics and Optical amplifier.
