Overview
The Center for Nanophotonics (NanoPhoton) at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) conducts cutting-edge fundamental research on semiconductor nanocavities that confine light to dimensions far below the wavelength. Until recently, such extreme light localization was considered impossible, yet it now enables access to regimes of strong light–matter interaction. This opens exciting new opportunities in quantum and information technologies while advancing fundamental science. We refer to this emerging research area as Extreme Dielectric Confinement (EDC), and we invite you to become part of the team shaping this field./nNanoPhoton is an interdisciplinary research center that brings together several departments at DTU and is supported by a Center grant from the Danish National Research Foundation. It offers a highly collaborative and international research environment at the forefront of nanophotonics./nWe are now seeking several highly motivated PhD students with strong academic records who are eager to contribute to this rapidly developing field.
