Our group's research interests include experimental and theoretical studies into quantum optics and atomic physics. Can we
find useful ways to overcome the barrier known as the "diffraction limit"? How far can we push the index of refraction of a
medium while suppressing absorption? We investigate these and a variety of other problems such as atomic self-focusing and
electromagnetically induced transparencylike effects in hot atomic vapor and ultracold atom clouds.
Please see our
recent articles for more detail on our experimental setup and research interests.
