Traianos Yioultsis was born in Yiannitsa, Greece, in 1969. He received the Diploma degree (with highest honors) in electrical engineering, in 1992, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering, in 1998, both from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. From 1993 to 1998, he was a research and teaching assistant in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the same university. From 2001 to 2002 he was a postdoctoral research associate at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA. Since 2002, he has been with the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, where he is currently a Professor. He teaches four undergraduate courses (microwaves, wireless communications, antennas, electromagnetic wave propagation) and two graduate courses (microwave measurements, computational techniques in electromagnetics). His current interests include the analysis and design of microwave circuits/antennas, silicon integrated circuits and optical devices with fast computational and optimization techniques and the modeling of complex wave propagation problems.

Odysseas Tsilipakos was born in Thessaloniki in 1984. He received his diploma in Electrical Engineering and his Ph.D. degree from the School of Electrical & Computer Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, in 2008 and 2013, respectively. His doctoral thesis focused on guided-wave plasmonic switching elements, based on the thermo-optic and nonlinear effects, and the interconnection of such components with silicon-on-insulator waveguides. In 2014 he received a Postoctoral Excellence Fellowship from the Research Committee of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki for studying optical bistability with hybrid silicon-plasmonic resonators. He is now a postdoctoral researcher at the Photonic-, Phononic- and Meta- Materials (PPM) Group, Foundation for Research and Technology Hellas (FORTH), Institute of Electronic Structure and Laser (IESL).
