Young physicist Humeyra Caglayan received a European Research Council (ERC) grant after taking part in a COST Action on how to harness light energy. Nanoscale Quantum Optics has kick-started both her international career and a drive to greater gender equality in this field, she says.
Nanoscale Quantum Optics investigated how to control the interaction between light particles – known as photons – and matter, with far-reaching possibilities for information processing, sensing and measurement, light sources and sustainable energy.
