The textbook on the theory and background of metamaterial "Essential Concept in Metamaterials by Prof. Jensen Li" is now published on IOPScience, and available for purchase from Amazon. In this work, I contributed the cover image and helped to proofread the book.
What is being covered?

I am very happy to announce that our work on analog computing based on metalens arrays has been published in Advanced Optical Materials.
The Promise and The Challenge
Photonic computing promises incredible speedups for tasks requiring a high degree of parallelism, such as image processing and neural…

What I did not anticipated before when I setup my NAS was how loud the enterprise HDDs are. WD Ultrastar is as loud as it could possibly be. See this video for a reference. It really makes me thought that my HDDs arrive broken (especially the fact that they are secondhand). Apparently, these are nor…
Around the end of 2024, I started to search for homelab NAS builds. One big driving force is the expensive cloud storage pricing offered by Google, and the fact that One Drive on my University started to reduce the available storage 5TB in 2020 to merely 50GB in 2025 (outrageous 99% reduction!).
I b…
Hey all, Stefan here. It's the Hello World to open up this blog series.
If you know me personally, you know that my hobby is to tinker my way through linux and setup my homelab server. In this blog series, I will share guides that I use for my setup, and perhaps also share my perspectives on scient…
