Laboratory for Nanoscale Optics, The Lonar Lab, Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
Research in the Laboratory for Nanoscale Optics focuses on the study of phenomena resulting from the interaction of light and matter in nanostructures. Examples include efficient control of light within photonic crystals, light generation in novel quantum emitters (e.g. semiconductor nanocrystals, color centers in diamond) embedded in optical nanostructures, manipulation of nano-scale objects using guided waves, etc. Our ability to control and engineer light-matter interaction will result in novel devices and open potential for further developments in areas such as optical information processing, quantum cryptography, bio-chemical sensing, high-density optical data storage, and optical imaging. In order to achieve these goals we are also developing novel nanofabrication techniques. Finally, sophisticated numerical modeling is used to design our devices and understand underlying physics. We believe that such an integrated approach, both experimental and theoretical, is the best way to understand these complex optical systems.
