This knowledge then allows us to manipulate the systems in order to obtain a desired outcome. Our group seeks to: (i) Develop dynamical descriptions that capture effects of quantum phenomena on the single-atom/molecule level and for systems far-from-equilibrium. (ii) Identify quantum resources and utilize them in controlling quantum transport processes and quantum state preparation. (iii) Thoroughly define the relationship between quantum effects and concepts from non-equilibrium thermodynamics. The negativity of the quasiprobabilities (shaded areas) and the violation of classical Inequality (yellow and green shaded area). Strong heat flows can only happen in the presence of negativities. Dr. Lewi Tomer Faculty of Engineering Member of BINA Nano & Advanced Materials Center Nano-Photonics Center Research Areas • Light-matter interactions • Nanophotonics • Metamaterials • Plasmonics • IR nanospectroscopy • 2D materials Abstract Nano-optics and Light–matter interactions in metamaterials Our group studies fundamental aspects of nano-optics and light-matter interactions in nanostructures, 2D quantum materials and nanophotonic platforms. We investigate exotic materials for manipulating optical processes from the single ‘meta-atom’ level to full metasurface arrays. We design and fabricate tunable 2D nanophotonic platforms that enable the control of fundamental light properties such as emission, absorption, directional scattering, polarization, lasing etc. Utilizing these investigations we ultimately strive to make novel integrated, active nanophotonic devices.
