Quantum & Nonlinear Nanophotonics Group

Joel Cox, Eduardo Dias, Catarina Ferreira, Christian Nicolaisen Hansen and Viktor Skarby
The Quantum & Nonlinear Nanophotonics group investigates nanoscale light-matter interactions in regimes where quantum mechanical effects and nonlinear optical phenomena play a central role. The group develops and applies advanced theoretical frameworks to describe quantum and nonlinear phenomena governing the behavior of both light and matter, aiming to control light using light itself in nanophotonic architectures. Particular emphasis is placed on two-dimensional polariton physics, leveraging the unique optoelectronic properties of atomically thin materials to enable active control of light-matter interactions. The group’s research spans fundamental explorations at the boundary of classical and quantum physics and applied efforts that guide and interpret experiments, with the goal of developing material platforms for integrated devices with novel photonic and optoelectronic functionalities.
