Happy to receive a new grant worth half a million pounds to lead an exciting collaboration between three different areas of the Cavendish - optoelectronics, nanophotonics, and quantum optics. This grant, with an equal amount awarded to our theory collaborators & partners in UCSD (Prof. Joel Yuen-Zhou) will run for three years and involve us trying to tackle a hard problem: how entangled are molecular excitons and how can we measure it! Will be recruiting for a new postdoc soon and setting up a new laboratory and new experimental rig to measure single molecule optically detected magnetic resonance - stay tuned! More details in news coverage by St. John’s College Cambridge and the Cavendish Laboratories.

Had a fun time this year at the SPP11 conference in Tokyo, giving my first invited talk on “Nanophotonics to control mid-infrared light and polariton condensation” and giving a contributed talk in SCOM5 on the new lanthanide research direction. Good feedback and great to see scientific colleagues and learn from the community - and get new ideas!
