📢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

Conventional filters change color with angle (left). Using ultra-strong coupling to organic materials, our #polariton filters show angle-independent characteristics (right).

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!

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

Very sad to hear of the passing on 15 Oct of Wilson Sibbett CBE from @univofstandrews, ultrafast pioneer, mentor & dear friend to many. He won numerous honours from @OpticaWorldwide @rankprize @PhysicsNews @EuroPhysSoc @royalsociety Add your memories here rememberancebook.net/book/pr…

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

Hanging out at a brew house with @TheGatherLab @TheColloid @MurawskiLab Pauline and Sonny. Had a pretty tasty burger and shared these pretzel bites.

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.
