About AES

Since its first edition in Paris in 2012, AES has brought together researchers working across electromagnetic theory, antennas and radiating structures, metamaterials, photonics and the broader physics of waves and matter.

What is AES

Electromagnetic waves, materials and structures

AES is an international forum for research on electromagnetic waves and their interaction with natural, artificial and structured media, across the spectrum from radio frequencies and microwaves to terahertz and optics. Its scope encompasses the fundamental physics of wave generation, radiation, propagation and scattering, with particular emphasis on antennas and radiating structures, metamaterials and metasurfaces, photonic crystals, microwave and terahertz technologies, plasmonics and nanophotonics.

The conference brings together theoretical, computational and experimental advances in the modelling, design, fabrication and characterisation of materials, structures, devices and systems for controlling electromagnetic waves, including emerging phenomena across classical and quantum regimes. Each edition combines peer-reviewed contributed papers with invited lectures, focused symposia, special sessions and tutorials.

Our history

From Paris to Athens

The first AES was held in Paris in April 2012 as the Advanced Electromagnetics Symposium. The conference has since met in Sharjah, Hangzhou, Málaga, Incheon, at sea on a Mediterranean Cruise, Lisbon, Marrakesh, Torremolinos, Rome, Tangier and Catania, taking its present name, the International Conference on Antennas and Electromagnetic Systems, from the 2022 edition. AES 2027 marks the thirteenth edition of the conference and its first gathering in Athens.
