✨ Innovative Technology for Better Displays & Sensors 📱 ✨
A research team @uhasselt @univofstandrews lead by @TheGatherLab #UniCologne, has harnessed the quantum mechanical principle of strong coupling to develop revolutionary polariton filters.👇

📢Just published: Breaking the angular dispersion limit in thin-film optics by ultra-strong light-matter coupling rdcu.be/d2hUo. This may be our most impactful work so far, challenging a fundamental limit that has constrained optical design in the past. @andreas_physics
ALT Ultra-thin, flexible polariton filter that retains its properties for different bending angles.

Conventional filters change color with angle (left). Using ultra-strong coupling to organic materials, our #polariton filters show angle-independent characteristics (right).
ALT Conventional thin-film filter changing color with angle of observation.
ALT Polarition filter retains narrow band spectral characteristics for a wide field of view / range of angles.

The new filters will allow larger field of view and reduced noise in fields like micro-optics, #displays, optical #sensors, #imaging and #biophotonics.

Last meal in Kyoto was a gem of a place, having a relaxing lunch with @TheGatherLab. I went for cold soba and tempura and Malte the grilled eel and udon in broth. Worth the trek. Handmade Udon & Soba Shōraku

As a member of @TIDE_rtg I had the opportunity to work in the research group of Prof. Chih-Jen Shih at ETH Zürich. Now I am going back to the @TheGatherLab with new knowledge about nanofabrication and new inspiration for further projects. Thank you for the great time!

So excited to meet everyone at @ICEL24Kyoto this week! Three days packed with an amazing program! (And of course looking forward to being in Japan again 🍜🍣😉.)
We’ll be right here, waiting for you!!

A great peak of attending conferences at the US west coast is to enjoy morning twilight scenes while already fully awake, whether they are light scattering or optically cleared 🤓 #jetlag

If you wanted to do computations but needed help, this is the paper for you, which has the solution for you in our software Digichem @DigichemProject. Check out @oli_s_lee's paper in @digital_rsc (http://dx.doi.org10.1039/D4DD00147H). @StAndrewsChem @TheGatherLab @StAndrewsOsc

Back in #Iceland after having done my first postdoc here with @KristjanLeosson @Haskoli_Islands 15 years ago. This time in summer, it's still daylight at 11pm! Looking forward to the #PEPS2024 #polariton meeting.
