Many-body cavity quantum electrodynamics

I am a theoretical physicist currently at the University of Innsbruck, Austria.

I have a broad research interest, ranging from condensed-matter physics and quantum gases to quantum optics and metrology; see research and publications for more details. There is also a YouTube video highlighting one of my research work: "Quantum Light Induces an Emergent Quasicrystalline Symmetry". You can also read a simplified description of our recent, joint experiment-theory paper published in Nature here: "Quantum matter: Tuning density waves". There is also a university news article highlighting my single-authored work: The “superradiance” revisited.

Quantum matter: Tuning density wavesScientists from the University of Innsbruck, together with colleagues from the EPFL, have found a new way to create a crystalline structure emerging as a “coherent matter density wave” in an atomic gas. The findings help to better understand the intriguing behavior of quantum matter close to absolute zero temperature.

The “superradiance” revisited

Theoretical physicist Farokh Mivehvar has investigated the interaction of two collections of atoms emitting light inside a quantum cavity – an optical device consisting of two high quality, tiny mirrors facing each other that confines the light within a small area for an extended time. The model and predictions can be implemented and observed in state-of-the-art cavity/waveguide quantum-electrodynamics experiments and might have applications in the new generation of so-called “superradiant lasers”.
