The Kenneth J. Button Prize 2012

The Kenneth J. Button Prize is awarded annually at the International Conference on Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves in recognition of outstanding contributions to the Science of the Electromagnetic Spectrum. The Prize is named after the founder of the Conference Series and is administered by the Institute of Physics in London. It consists of a bronze medal, a certificate and a cash prize of £2000. At each annual meeting of the Conference, the Kenneth J Button Prize Committee will meet to consider the nominations that have been submitted and will elect the recipient of the Medal and Prize for the following year. The presentation will be made at the following annual meeting of the Conference and the recipient will normally be invited to give a plenary lecture at that meeting.
