The Physics Department presents An information theoretic approach to quantify complexity of nanoscale systems by Dr. Ilya Grigorenko

N-823

Abstract: In this study the entropy density and mutual information measures were used to identify the optimal interaction parameters between nanoparticles, which lead to the maximum geometric complexity of self-assembled nanostructures. A generalization of complexity measures at a finite temperature and for nonequilibrium systems is also presented. The developed theory can be used for efficient in

In this talk I will explore a lesser-known intermediate regime of exciton-photon coupling when the Rabi energy exceeds exciton binding energy. Presented by: Jacob Khurgin

Designer Matter: Meta-Material Interactions with Light and Sound

Namm 823

Dear Faculty and Students, The Physics Department and Center for Theoretical Physics will conduct a seminar Thursday May 16 at 12:00 pm in Namm Room 823.  Faculty and students are welcome. Light refreshments will be served. Topic: Metamaterials are artificial materials with properties well beyond what offered by nature, providing unprecedented opportunities to tailor and
