Encyclopedia
Julio César Gutiérrez Vega is a Mexican
physicist who has done pioneering work on wave propagation of optical field
s; particularly, he introduced the Mathieu family of non-diffracting optical beams (with Sabino Chávez Cerda) and the Helmholtz-Gauss beams —a parabolic family of non-diffracting optical beams— with Miguel A. Bandrés.
Gutiérrez Vega received both a bachelor's degree in Industrial Physics Engineering (1991) and a master's degree in Electrical Engineering (1995) from the Monterrey Institute of Technology (ITESM) and obtained a doctorate degree in optics
from the National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics
(INAOE, 2000).
He is also a member of the Mexican Academy of Sciences
(since 2004), a member of the Mexico's National System of Researchers (SNI, level 3), has received the 2008 Rómulo Garza Award for research and development, and currently serves as director of the Center for Optics and as head of the Photonics and Mathematical Optics Group at the Monterrey Institute of Technology.
