About the Editors

Tie Jun Cui is Cheung-Kong Professor and Chief Professor at Southeast University, China, and a Fellow of the IEEE. He has made significant contributions to the area of effective-medium metamaterials and spoof surface plasmon polaritons at microwave frequencies, both in new-physics verification and engineering applications. Recently, he has proposed digital coding, field-programmable, and information metamaterials, which extend the concept of metamaterial from an effective medium to a real-time information processing system.
