Torgom Yezekyan obtained his master's degree in Radiophysics from the Yerevan State University in 2016, and PhD in Physics (2019) from the same university working on interactions of atoms with plasmonic structures under supervision of Prof Khachatur Nerkarayan.
In 2019, he joined the Center for Nano Optics (SDU) as a postdoctoral researcher with a main focus on experimental plasmonics. In 2024 he joined POLIMA continuing his research as a research assistant. During his stay in POLIMA, he co-authored among others following publications:
