Peter Menart

Peter Menart is from Dayton, OH, and received his Bachelor’s degree in Physics and Math at The Ohio State University in Spring 2022. In his undergraduate research, he worked on a spontaneous parametric down-conversion setup and characterized field-programmable gate arrays. He joined the group in...

Topological Edge Plasmons in Quantum Many-Body Systems by Prof. Stephan Haas

Prof. Stephan Haas discussed how the many-body excitation spectrum of topological insulators is affected by the presence of long-range Coulomb interactions. In the one-dimensional Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model and its mirror-symmetric variant, strongly localized plasmonic excitations are observed which...

Jehan Shalabi

Jehan earned her Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering from the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) in May 2022. During her 2021 MIT research internship, she worked on autonomous vehicle navigation for a multi-robot system with the Robust Robotics Group at the MIT Computer...

Vineet Punyamoorty

Vineet received his bachelor's and master's degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. He is currently a PhD student in Prof. Zubin Jacob's research group, where he works on the theory of atomistic pico-scale electrodynamics.

Quantum analog of the maximum power transfer theorem

In our recent work in Optics Express , we discover the quantum analog of the well-known classical maximum power transfer theorem, typically used in classical circuit design. By developing a unified framework, from the Lindblad master equation and describing power delivery in dissipative quantum...

Picophotonics: Atomistic Anomalous Waves in Silicon

Light-matter interaction in materials is central to several photonic devices from lasers to detectors. Over the past decade, nanophotonics, the study of how light flows on the nanometer scale in engineered structures such as photonic crystals and metamaterials has led to important advances. This...
