On this Friday, the 12th of April, we are delighted to welcome an ATHENIAN, Professor Dr. Humberto Michinel, from the University of Vigo, Spain.
In this talk, Prof. Humberto Michinel will review the properties of optical vortices in highly nonlinear optical materials. In these materials, the dependence of the refractive index on the intensity of light beams changes from increasing to decreasing, producing a state known as the “liquid of light.” The author will also describe the quantum techniques that yield these types of optical materials and discuss the implications from the perspective of the superfluid properties of these systems.
