Polariton Science Conference 4-7 June
80 researchers joined the conference in Odense to present results within the research field of polariton-driven nanoscale light-matter interactions
4-7 June POLIMA had the pleasure of hosting the Polariton Science Conference which featured invited talks from emerging and renowned international research leaders. The conference focused on the state-of-the-art and future directions of polariton-driven nanoscale light-matter interactions across diverse fields.
80 researchers from more than 30 research groups joined the conference and spent the time in Odense discussing and presenting results.
Keynote speaker
Professor Ido Kaminer opened the conference with his talk 'Mapping Light-Matter Interactions Using Ultrafast Free Electrons'.
Summer School 4-5 June
5o younger scientists started the Polariton Science Conference with a two-day Summer School with lectures from Professor Nahid Talebi, Professor Bert Hecht, Professor Javier Garcia de Abajo, Professor Sergey I. Bozhevolnyi, Professor Joel Yang and Professor Thomas Pertsch.
Best Poster Award
Wenhua Zhao, Max Born Instute, Berlin won the Best Poster Award for her poster with the title: 'Real-time surface plasmon polariton propagation in silver nanowires'. The prize was generously sponsored by NIL Technology.
