BILKENT UNIVERSITYDEPARTMENT of PHYSICS SEMINAR Aydın Cem KeserCSIRO, Sydney, Australia “Nonlinearity and Randomness in Many-Body Physics: Insights and Practical Applications” Abstract: Many-body physics is a rich field that connects diverse topics ranging from fundamental interactions to condensed matter physics and its engineering applications. Many-body theory is generally formulated in a linear framework. Nevertheless, randomness and…

BILKENT UNIVERSITYDEPARTMENT of PHYSICS SEMINAR Bayram TekinMETU “Short and Long Distance Problems of General Relativity and Possible Solutions” Abstract: General Relativity, as a theory of gravity, works remarkably well at Solar system tests, yet it has to be modified to describe the motion of stars in spiral galaxies and the motion of galaxies in galaxy…

BILKENT UNIVERSITYDEPARTMENT of PHYSICS SEMINAR Serap GüneşYildiz Technical University “Shaping the Future: on Third Generation Solar Cells” Abstract: As the global demand for renewable energy sources increases, the development of efficient and sustainable solar technologies emerges as a critical issue. This seminar reviews the miscellaneous perspective of third generation solar cells, focusing on organic, hybrid,…

BILKENT UNIVERSITYDEPARTMENT of PHYSICS SEMINAR Selim HanayBilkent University “Resonator-Based Physical Sensors for Environmental and Biologic Applications” Abstract: Identification of nanoscale objects in a high throughput manner can help us address critical challenges in environmental and biological fields, such as the quantification of micro/nanoplastic pollution, and screening for viral infection. To attain the necessary throughput and…

BILKENT UNIVERSITYDEPARTMENT of PHYSICS SEMINAR Uğur TeğinKoç University “Exploring complex and nonlinear dynamics for photonics technologies” Abstract: Light-matter interactions provide linear and nonlinear dynamics. When low-intensity light travels through a multimode waveguide or a scattering medium, it often experiences diffraction and dispersion. However, photons and matter interact for high-intensity light propagation, and the spatiotemporal distribution…
