Exciton-polaritons (or simply polaritons) are pseudo-particles arising from the strong coupling between a photon and an exciton (an electron-hole pair), which live confined in two dimensions inside a semiconductor microcavity. Polaritons inherit properties from their constituent particles, such as the lightweight from its photonic component and the interacting character from the excitonic counterpart. As such, polaritons can be thought of as interacting photons on which quantum information can be encoded, and which can be transported along great distances. Besides, their high-efficiency operation takes place in the micrometer scale, which place them as an interesting platform to develop quantum technologies. | |||

Research Fields
I study the interaction of light with matter.
More specifically, my interest is in the development and application of strongly correlated light, which are the building blocks of technological applications such as quantum spectroscopy, novel sources of quantum light (lying beyond the classical description).

Exciton-polaritons (or simply polaritons) are pseudo-particles arising from the strong coupling between a photon and an exciton (an electron-hole pair), which live confined in two dimensions inside a semiconductor microcavity. Polaritons inherit properties from their constituent particles, such as the lightweight from its photonic component and the interacting character from the excitonic counterpart. As such, polaritons can be thought of as interacting photons on which quantum information can be encoded, and which can be transported along great distances. Besides, their high-efficiency operation takes place in the micrometer scale, which place them as an interesting platform to develop quantum technologies.
