Daniel Comber-Todd (Honours) and Jonas von Milczewski (PhB student) are joining us for a year. Welcome and have fun!

Our streak camera has arrived, are we are starting to upgrade the experimental setup!

Our work on chiral polaritonic lenses [Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 200404 (2014), Editors’ suggestion] is featured on Physics.aps.org

The ANU Polariton Lab warmly welcomes our new Postdoctoral Fellow, Dr. Tingge Gao, and a PhD student, Mr. Eliezer Estrecho,

 The first experimental results from the ANU Polariton BEC Laboratory are now available online (arXiv.org): Creation of orbital angular momentum states with chiral polaritonic lenses

We have observed BEC in our new dedicated laboratory.
