First place for PhD student Dominik Horneber at PEPS 2024 in Reykjavík
10.08.2024TeP Ph.D. student Dominik Horneber has been awarded first place in the student poster presentation competition.
At the first international conference on Physics of Excitons and Polaritons in Semiconductors (PEPS), early career researchers and Ph.D students were especially encouraged to come and present their research. Dominik Horneber did so and it paid off for him.
He participated in the poster session on Wednesday afternoon, August 7. For his poster "Room Temperature Exciton-Polariton Lasing and Photonic Lattices with a Perylene Bisimide based Microcavity" he was awarded the Best Poster Presentation Award Certificate. The chair of the conference, Dr. Helgi Sigurðsson (University of iceland, University of Warsaw) congratulated him and presented him with a certificate and a photo book about Iceland.
PEPS is a brand new biennial conference series focused on bringing together experts, early career researchers, students and young minds working on quantum light-matter technologies and the optics of semiconductors. The foundation of this new colloquium is built upon strong light-matter effects in optical cavities, advances in exciton-polariton physics, macroscopic quantum phenomena, and polarization- and spin-transport physics in nanostructures.
Congratulations, Dominik, good job!
