Congrats to our Mert on successfully completing his PhD today! His thesis “Ultrafast All-Optical Control of Light in Active Dielectric Metasurfces” marks an important contribution to the project! Let’s wish him all the best for the next chapter!
Lucia Di Virgilio just joined as a postdoctoral researcher! She completed her Ph.D. at MPI Mainz, under the supervision of Prof. M. Bonn and part of the UHMob programme, studying transport properties of conductive molecular materials with THz spectroscopy. As part of our group, we look forward to exploring with her the transient strong coupling regime in organic metacavities. Welcome to her!
Honoured to receive the Women in Ultrafast Science Global Award! I share the award with my group members and all collaborators! Congratulations to the other outstanding co-recipients of this award from around the world!
Our paper on giant ultrafast dichroism and birifrigence in an active nonlocal metasurface has been just published in Light: Science & Applications. Congratulations to our Mert and Giulia, and to all co-authors!
Control of light, light-matter interactions, frequency conversion: in our Perspective just published in ACS Photonics we discuss the state of the art, emerging challenges and new frontiers for ultrafast all-optical metasurfaces.
Our paper on ultrafast long-range energy transfer between optically hybridized J-aggregated in a strongly coupled microcavity has been just published in Advanced Optical Materials. Congratulations to Mattia and all our co-authors!
