Physics Seminar: Control of light-matter interaction in 2D materials

N-823

Presented by: Prof. Vinod Menon of City College of CUNY New York, NY Two-dimensional (2D) Van der Waals materials have emerged as a very attractive class of optoelectronic material due to the unprecedented strength in its interaction with light. In this talk I will discuss approaches to enhance and control this interaction by integrating these

Title: Quantum Many-Body Physics of Qubits Professor Leonid Glazman Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA Abstract: The ongoing development of superconducting qubits has brought some basic questions of many-body physics to the research forefront, and in some cases helped solving them. I will address two effects in quantum condensed matter highlighted by the development of a
