PSI Seminar: Strong light-matter coupling excitons in microcavities and their applications
12:00 - 13:00 29 January 2025
Join us for this PSI seminar with guest speaker Dr Sai Kiran Rajendran. Radiative properties of excitons can be modified when placed in microcavities. Since the 1990s, the strong coupling of excitons to cavity modes were pursued towards the observation of novel polariton features such as condensation,...

Algebra seminar - Jordan Haden
14:00 - 15:00 28 January 2025
Title: 3-Preprojective Algebras of Type D Abstract: Over an algebraically closed field, Gabriel’s theorem states that the path algebra kQ of a connected quiver is representation-finite if and only if the underlying graph of Q is an ADE Dynkin diagram. Equivalently, kQ is representation-finite precisely...
