Secuencias Digitales en el Diseño de Nuevos Sistemas Ópticos
Jorge Ojeda-Castañeda earned his doctorate in applied optics, at the University of Reading, UK, under the supervision of Prof. H. H. Hopkins, F.R.S. and Rumford laureate. As an Alexander von Humboldt fellow, he worked for two years with Prof. Adolf W. Lohmann, at the University of Erlangen, in Germany.
He worked for more than 20 years at the Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica (México) where he served as a general director for two consecutive periods of four years. For five years, he served as the dean of the School of Science, in the University of las Americas, Puebla, México. He is currently a full professor, in the University of Guanajuato, México.
He is an emeritus national research fellow in México. He has been a visiting professor at the Institute of Optics in Madrid, the University of Valencia, the Autonomous University of Barcelona, and the University James I (all in Spain). He was a visiting scientist at the Centro de Investigaciones Ópticas (La Plata, Argentina) and the Technical University of Ilmenau (Germany).
He has written more than 300 papers in academic journals and conference proceedings. He has been an invited speaker at more than fifty international meetings on optics. For more than forty years, he has been teaching basic courses in physics and mathematics, at both the undergraduate level and the graduate level.
He is a fellow of the SPIE, of the Optical Society of America, the Mexican Academy of Science, and distinguished fellow of the Optical Society of India. He is the recipient of the Research award of the Academia Mexicana de Óptica (1990), the Research award of the Sociedad Mexicana de Física (1994), the Galileo Galilei medal from the International Commission for Optics (2020), and the Maria Goeppert-Mayer award from the SPIE, the International Society for Optics and Photonics (2021).
