My research focused on exploring the photophysical properties of light–matter quasiparticles, known as exciton–polaritons, generated from strong coupling between CdSe nanocrystals and a Fabry–Pérot cavity. These polaritons have the potential to unlock novel quantum applications and facilitate new chemical reaction pathways.
