Thin-film polariton filters for better displays, sensors, and optical imaging? https://t.co/mEu3oaMMdr

[Universität zu Köln @UniCologne]

✨ 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.👇

[GatherLab @TheGatherLab]

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

📢Just published: Breaking the angular dispersion limit in thin-film optics by ultra-strong light-matter coupling https://t.co/1WQguRVTAB. 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).

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

[Julia Witt @_juliawitt]

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!

The next ICEL is in Namur, Belgium!!! Our next chair, Yoann Olivier, has us sold on Belgium chocolate and other delights already! See you there in 2026. #ICEL26 @ICEL24Kyoto

[GatherLab @TheGatherLab]

We are all very much enjoying a great conference here in Japan 👍

[GatherLab @TheGatherLab]

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 🍜🍣😉.)

[ICEL2024 Kyoto @ICEL24Kyoto]

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

[GatherLab @TheGatherLab]

What an honour to present our work with @GentzonHallMD and others on mapping forces in #podocytes with #ERISM @ASNKidney #KindneyWk 24 in San Diego. A great conference with an impressively large + welcoming community. #mechanobiology

[John Dudley @johnmdudley]

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 https://t.co/CYAFMvdWlp

[GatherLab @TheGatherLab]

Gave my plenary talk on our #biophotonic tools for #mechanobiology and #force #imaging at the DGBM @matrixbiology meeting in #Regensburg this morning. Such a welcoming and creative community. Thanks for your warm welcome! Not a #FridayThe13th experience at all 🤗

[DGMB @Matrixbiologie]

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

[GatherLab @TheGatherLab]

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.

[GatherLab @TheGatherLab]

I am honoured and humbled to receive this additional funding from @ERC_Research to pursue our plans to translate our work together with @andreas_physics, Julian Butcher and Florian Le Roux.

[Universität zu Köln @UniCologne]

🚀 Congratulations to @TheGatherLab to be awarded a "Proof of Concept" grant from @ERC_Research worth 150,000 euros. 👏
