The Michael Faraday Medal and Prize is a gold medal awarded annually by the Institute of Physics in experimental physics. [1] The award is made "for outstanding and sustained contributions to experimental physics." The medal is accompanied by a prize of £1000 and a certificate. [2]

Michael Faraday
(1791 - 1867)

Historical development

  • 1914-1965 Guthrie Lecture initiated to remember Frederick Guthrie, [3] founder of the Physical Society (which merged with the Institute of Physics in 1960).
  • 1966-2007 Guthrie Medal and Prize (in response to changed conditions from when the lecture was first established). From 1992, it became one of the Institute's Premier Awards.
  • 2008–present Michael Faraday Medal and Prize

Medalists and lecturers

Faraday medalists

  • 2022 Nikolay Zheludev, "For international leadership, discoveries and in-depth studies of new phenomena and functionalities in photonic nanostructures and nanostructured matter."
  • 2021 Bucker Dangor, "For outstanding contributions to experimental plasma physics, and in particular for his role in the development of the field of laser-plasma acceleration."
  • 2020 Richard Ellis, "For over 35 years of pioneering contributions in faint-object astronomy, often with instruments he funded and constructed, which have opened up the early universe to direct observations."
  • 2019 Roy Taylor, "For his extensive, internationally leading contributions to the development of spectrally diverse, ultrafast-laser sources and pioneering fundamental studies of nonlinear fibre optics that have translated to scientific and commercial application." [4]

  • 2017 Jeremy Baumberg, "For his investigations of many ingenious nanostructures supporting novel and precisely engineered plasmonic phenomena relevant to single molecule and atom dynamics, Raman spectroscopies and metamaterials applications." [8]
  • 2016 Jenny Nelson," For her pioneering advances in the science of nanostructured and molecular semiconductor materials "
  • 2015 Henning Sirringhaus, "For transforming our knowledge of charge transport phenomena in organic semiconductors as well as our ability to exploit them" [9]
  • 2014 Alexander Giles Davies and Edmund Linfield, "For their outstanding and sustained contributions to the physics and technology of the far-infrared (terahertz) frequency region of the electromagnetic spectrum" [10] [11] [12]
  • 2013 Edward Hinds, "For his innovative and seminal experimental investigations into ultra-cold atoms and molecules"
  • 2012 Roy Sambles, "For his pioneering research in experimental condensed matter physics"
  • 2011 Alan Andrew Watson, "For his outstanding leadership within the Pierre Auger Observatory, and the insights he has provided to the origin and nature of ultra high energy cosmic rays" [13]
  • 2010 Athene Donald, "For her many highly original studies of the structures and behaviour of polymers both synthetic and natural"
  • 2009 Donal Bradley, "For his pioneering work in the field of ' plastic electronics'"
  • 2008 Roger Cowley, "For pioneering work in the development and application of neutron and X-ray scattering techniques to the physics of a wide range of important solid and liquid-state systems"
