Physical phenomena of interest
 Optical properties of low-dimensional nanomaterials: design and study of advanced materials for applications in optical memories, light emitters, waveguiding and optical gas sensing. Microspectroscopy of single quantum emitters (molecules, quantum dots, nanotubes). Surface-enhanced fluorescence and raman scattering of single emitters. Development of cryogenic equipment.
Materials under study
Metal-oxide films, fibers, powders; synthetical diamond films and powders, diamond-like carbon, carbon nanotubes.
