Particular interest is attracted by resonant metasurfaces, where optical modes provide extreme confinement of light in the nanostructures volume and subsequent enhancement of light-matter interaction. This aspect is essential to boost the efficiency of various phenomena, from optical nonlinearities (e.g., multiphoton interaction like in second-harmonic generation) to reconfiguration mechanisms (i.e., dynamic modulation of the refractive index). In this talk I will survey techniques of controlling light at the nanoscale, focusing on nonlinear and reconfiguration processes, what they offer and what are their limitations.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong><u>You don't know POBs?</u></strong><br>\r\nPOBs (Pizza-Optics-Beer) are monthly seminars organized by the student association EPFL Photonics Chapter.<br>\r\nA PhD or a postdoc gives a 20-minutes presentation about his/her research in photonics.

Their atomically thin nature gives rise to distinctive electronic and optical properties, while simultaneously enabling them to function as highly sensitive, readily integrable probes of their local environment. Advanced optical techniques, such as super-resolution microscopy, have opened new opportunities to interrogate these materials at the nanoscale, providing optical access to individual defect behaviors, exciton diffusion and recombination dynamics, and charge transport pathways. Such approaches not only deepen our understanding of intrinsic material behavior but also position 2D systems as powerful sensors capable of resolving local dielectric variations, electric and magnetic fields, and other environmental perturbations.<br>\r\nCentral to this work is hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), a transparent, wide bandgap semiconductor that serves as a host for optically active defects. These defects function as reaction centers, single-photon emitters, and spatially resolved nanoscale sensors that can be readily integrated into electronic and photonic architectures. Owing to its optical transparency, chemical stability, and compatibility with diverse material platforms, hBN provides an exceptional foundation for optical sensing. Building upon this foundation, we explore material properties and present new methods for spatially resolved in situ optical imaging with hBN to advance dynamic, wide-field optical sensing.<br>\r\nWe investigate a previously reported class of emitters that arise from interactions between native hBN and organic solvents. These emitters are believed to originate from defect sites that bind transiently to solvent molecules. To study their behavior, we develop a platform for imaging the dynamics of these transient emitters while varying the electrochemical potential and applying electric fields with controlled orientations. By tracking the spectra of individual emitters, we enable multiplexed measurements that allow spatially resolved electrochemical imaging. Through systematic analysis, we rule out modulation mechanisms based on direct electric field effects or charge transfer. Instead, we identify a mechanism driven by changes in H⁺ concentration, which is modulated during the oxidation of trace water present in the solvent. This finding opens the possibility of using this platform for sensitive detection of H⁺ and trace water in methanol fuel cells, where such species critically influence operational efficiency.<br>\r\nIn the final part of the thesis, we focus on a well-characterized spin defect in hBN, the negatively charged boron vacancy, and explore strategies to enhance its photoluminescence (PL) through heterostructure engineering that facilitates energy and exciton transfer. We demonstrate the coupled structure’s improved utility in optical magnetometry compared to the defect by itself and discuss how improvements in PL could advance the development of wide-field optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) imaging using this spin defect. Using a defect in hBN would leverage 2D materials’ exceptional sensing capabilities and planar integrability.<br>\r\nOverall, this thesis aims to highlight the strengths of integrating 2D materials with optical sensing and to develop transferable techniques for introducing controlled stimuli, such as electrochemical potentials, electric fields, or electromagnetic waves, with high fidelity and minimal artifacts. These advances not only demonstrate the potential of hBN as a versatile sensing platform but also establish methodologies applicable to a wide range of low-dimensional material systems.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nFor zoom:<br>\r\n Meeting ID: 611 3428 2068 Passcode: 952027</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-13T16:07:39", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-13T16:07:39", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "ELA 1", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==ELA%201", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/61134282068?pwd=zurg0qXVsUx4ln0hxCcrvjDCiHhwSx.1", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Eveline Mayner\r\n\r\nAleksandra Radenovic", "organizer": "Eveline Mayner", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Public Defense", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120775/", "category": { "id": 4, "code": "DIVERS", "fr_label": "Autres types d’événement", "en_label": "Miscellaneous", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 69172, "title": "Dynamic Decisions and Temporal Frictions in On-Demand Mobility", "slug": "dynamic-decisions-and-temporal-frictions-in-on-d-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/dynamic-decisions-and-temporal-frictions-in-on-d-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33200/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33200/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33200/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-06-22", "end_date": "2026-06-22", "start_time": "10:30:00", "end_time": "11:30:00", "description": "<strong>ABSTRACT</strong><br>\r\nApp-based, on-demand transport systems have transformed urban mobility by enabling real-time coordination between vehicles and users. Yet behind this flexibility lies a fundamental tension: operational decisions that appear beneficial in the present can deteriorate the future state of the system. This talk explores these temporal frictions in assigned on-demand systems—where passengers and vehicles are matched before meeting—and how they shape the performance and reliability of shared mobility services.<br>\r\nFirst, we show how assignment decisions evolve through what we term the Increasing Gap Dynamics, a negative feedback cycle through which vehicles progressively concentrate in space, reducing system efficiency over time. We then examine how a tension between efficiency and reliability emerges: while highly dynamic operations can improve short-term efficiency and flexibility, they may also increase unreliability by exposing passengers to future, uncertain requests. We discuss how this tension manifests both in routing decisions and in the selection of pickup and dropoff locations, and show how carefully designed anticipatory techniques can help reconcile these competing objectives.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n <br>\r\n<strong>SHORT BIO</strong><br>\r\nDr Andrés Fielbaum is a Senior Lecturer in Transport Engineering at the University of Sydney and a DECRA Fellow of the Australian Research Council.

High-resolution quantitative measurements of the oligomeric organization of membrane proteins in native membranes, and how they change under different conditions, are indispensable for understanding membrane protein biology. Her lab reported a single-molecule technique, Native-nanoBleach, to determine the oligomeric distribution of membrane proteins from native membranes at ~10 nm spatial resolution and at endogenous levels of expression. They applied Native-nanoBleach to quantify the oligomerization status of structurally and functionally diverse membrane proteins. Her team has now extended this general technique to organellar membrane proteins and membrane contact sites in the context of neurodegeneration and rare developmental diseases. This general experimental pipeline will usher in a new era of studying membrane protein organization in their native membrane environments under various physiological and clinical conditions.<br>\r\n \r\n<div><strong>Bio</strong>: Moitrayee Bhattacharyya received her Ph.D. in Computational Biophysics at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, where she used molecular dynamics simulations and network theory to study allosteric communication in protein complexes. She transitioned into experimental biology during her postdoctoral studies at the University of California, Berkeley, as a Human Frontiers Science Program Long Term Fellow. Here, she used structural biology and single-molecule microscopy to study the molecular mechanism of regulation in a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that is critical for learning and memory. She started her lab at Yale University in the summer of 2020. One focus is to develop broad-impact technological platforms that enable high-resolution studies of membrane proteins in native membranes, in her lab and beyond. Her lab also applies these technologies in conjunction with established biophysical and structural methods to understand the molecular mechanisms of membrane-localized signaling in chronic pain and neurodegenerative diseases.</div>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-08T14:43:44", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-11T09:28:30", "link_label": "", "link_url": "https://medicine.yale.edu/profile/moitrayee-bhattacharyya/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Conference room SV.1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://www.epfl.ch/schools/sv/it/sv-rooms/#SV1717", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Moitrayee Bhattacharyya, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, Department of Pharmacology, Yale University School of Medicine ", "organizer": "Institute of Bioengineering, EPFL", "contact": "Prof. Florian Schueder", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120702/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71879, "title": "Mathematics Colloquium", "slug": "mathematics-colloquium-15", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/mathematics-colloquium-15", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33203/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33203/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33203/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-06-09", "end_date": "2026-06-09", "start_time": "16:15:00", "end_time": "17:15:00", "description": "<strong>Title : </strong>On indefinite ternary quadratic forms<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Abstract : </strong><br>\r\nWe describe the solution to two problems concerning indefinite integral ternary quadratic forms.<br>\r\nThe first about anisotropic forms was popularized by Margulis following his solution of the Oppenheim Conjecture.<br>\r\nThe second about the density of isotropic forms was raised by Serre.<br>\r\nJoint work with A.Gamburd, A.Ghosh and J.Whang.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Please register on the following form : </strong>https://forms.gle/w8PbDFZtRSs5V47Y8<br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-13T13:52:46", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-20T10:23:16", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "ELD 020", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==ELD%20020", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Prof. Peter Sarnak (Institute of Advanced Study and Princeton University)", "organizer": "Institute of Mathematics", "contact": "Prof. Philippe Michel", "is_internal": "True", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Sur invitation", "en_label": "Invitation required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120769/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/402/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 70777, "title": "Special Seminar - Directed evolution of RNA for self-replication", "slug": "special-seminar-directed-evolution-of-rna-for-self", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/special-seminar-directed-evolution-of-rna-for-self", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32378/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32378/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32378/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-29", "end_date": "2026-05-29", "start_time": "10:30:00", "end_time": "11:30:00", "description": "<strong>Special Seminar</strong>\r\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-98cefd8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\">\r\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><br>\r\nHow did life begin from chemistry? One leading idea is that RNA played a central role because it can act both as genetic material and as a catalyst. A major challenge has been that known RNA polymerase ribozymes, the catalysts of RNA copying, are large and complex, making them difficult to copy and unlikely to arise from prebiotic RNA sequence pools.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nIn this seminar, Edoardo Gianni will present QT45, a compact 45-nucleotide RNA polymerase ribozyme discovered from random RNA sequence pools. QT45 can catalyse the two essential reactions required for RNA self-replication: the synthesis of itself and the synthesis of its complementary strand. This work suggests that RNA-copying activity may be more common in sequence space than previously thought. It also brings us closer to understanding how self-replicating molecular systems could emerge in nature and be reconstructed in the laboratory.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nPlease join us for a fascinating seminar at the interface of origin-of-life chemistry, RNA biology, and synthetic molecular systems.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nLet me know if you would like to meet Edo during the day.</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e552a16 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\">\r\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"> </div>\r\n</div>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-01-06T13:09:20", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-18T09:02:55", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/64709337579", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<strong>Edoardo Gianni</strong> Investigator Scientist, MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, UK", "organizer": "Juan Manuel García-Arcos, PhD, Group Leader, Ambizione Fellow EPFL SV ISREC UPGON", "contact": "Lisa Smith, ISREC Administrative Assistant", "is_internal": "True", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Chemistry, Engineering", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/119181/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/26/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 70381, "title": "Preventing and facing conflicts", "slug": "preventing-and-facing-conflicts-9", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/preventing-and-facing-conflicts-9", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31840/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31840/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31840/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-09-24", "end_date": "2026-09-25", "start_time": "09:00:00", "end_time": "17:00:00", "description": "<p>Conflicts are part of daily life and commonly arise in a business environment.
