Current Research

Exploring light-matter interaction in low-dimensional systems. Focus areas include coupling single photon emitters in cavities, exciton-plasmon polaritons, microcavity exciton polaritons, and Bose-Einstein condensation in exciton-polaritons. Experimental systems involve microcavities, plasmonic lattices, hyperbolic metamaterials, and both organic and inorganic semiconductor emitters, such as dyes, quantum dots, 2D materials, and perovskite 2D nanoplatelets.
