Program
Special symposia
Two focused symposia, each continuing from AES 2026 in Catania, anchor the scientific programme of AES 2027 in Athens.
Special symposia at AES 2027
Two special symposia form part of the AES 2027 programme, covering defined topics in nanophotonics, metamaterials, computational electromagnetics and antennas. Symposium papers follow the same submission and review process as other conference contributions.
Symposium I
Recent Advances in Nanophotonics and Metamaterials
This symposium will address recent advances in nanophotonics, metamaterials and metasurfaces, including material platforms, wave-control concepts, applications and fabrication techniques. It welcomes theoretical, computational and experimental contributions across radio frequencies, microwaves, terahertz and optics.

Topics
Symposium II
Computational Electromagnetics for Radiating Structures and Complex Media
This symposium focuses on advanced computational methods and theoretical tools for the analysis, design, and optimisation of electromagnetic wave systems and radiating structures operating in complex materials and environments. It brings together experts in computational electromagnetics, numerical techniques, high-performance computing, and AI-assisted design with researchers working across antennas, metasurfaces, metamaterials, nanophotonics, plasmonics, and quantum photonics. The sessions will highlight how advanced algorithms and modelling approaches enable efficient analysis, optimisation, and prototyping of next-generation electromagnetic and photonic devices and systems.
