Since 1 June (2010), I am leading the project Solid-state Quantum Optical Devices (SQOD) in the group of Prof. Jonathan Finley (head of the Nanostructure Photonics Group and scientist in charge) under the support of a European Union grant called a Intra-European Fellowships (IEF) for Career Development, in the FP7--PEOPLE-2009-IEF call.

This page keeps track of my principal scientific output and activity supported by this grant.

Currently working on

1. A Jaynes-Cummings laser (with Elena, Alexander Poddubny and Mikhail Glazov).
2. Coherent emission from QDs (with Vase Jovanov et al.)
3. Quantum dynamics of polariton condensates.
4. Quantum nonlinearities (with Michael Schrapp & Arne Laucht).
5. Superconductivity with excitons and polaritons (with Alexey Kavokin et al.)

If you're not in the list, I might not be making quick progress! (but I don't forget you).
