Low-dimensional and quantum materials offer optical and electronic properties that are fundamentally different from those of conventional bulk materials. We investigate how these materials interact with strongly confined electromagnetic fields and how nanophotonic structures can be used to enhance, probe, and control these interactions.

Particular emphasis is placed on hybrid systems in which 2D, quantum, and other emerging materials are coupled to optical nanoantennas and resonant nanostructures. By tailoring the local electromagnetic environment, we aim to reveal new physical phenomena and develop mechanisms for actively controlling optical processes at deeply subwavelength dimensions.

These studies provide a route toward tunable nanophotonic systems in which the optical response is determined not only by geometry, but also by the intrinsic and dynamically controllable properties of the material.
