2. Strong Light-Matter Interactions and Formation of Hybrid States at the Nanoscale
Abstract : Noble metallic nanoparticles, which support localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR), offer a variety of potential scientific and industrial utilizations. Due to their remarkable ability to confine light at nanoscale dimensions, far below the optical diffraction limit, plasmonic nanoparticles enable intricate light manipulations, which may be performed and exploited for a wide range of future revolutionary applications.

3. Photoelectrochemical Processes on Fe2O3 Based Model Anodes
Abstract : One possibility to partially satisfy the ever-increasing energy needs of modern society, without compromising the Earth’s environment through e.g. global warming, consists in harvesting solar energy and storing it as hydrogen produced from water splitting. This can potentially be achieved on a large scale using photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells. READ MORE

4. Microscopic Theory of Externally Tunable Exciton Signatures of Two-Dimensional Materials
Abstract : Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are in the focus of current research due to their efficient light-matter interaction and the remarkably strong Coulomb interaction that leads to tightly bound excitons. Due to their unique band structure, TMDs show a variety of bright and optically inaccessible dark excitonic states. READ MORE

5. Investigations of Strong Light-Matter Interactions in Nanophotonic Systems
Abstract : Noble metal nanoparticles can support localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR), thus behaving as open optical resonators. Outstanding optical properties as well as a subwavelength mode volume make plasmonic nanoparticles a promising platform for enhanced light-matter interactions. READ MORE
