Explore the potential of creating new states of matter through light-matter hybrid states in this 46-minute lecture by Angel Rubio from the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter. Delve into the concept of polaritonic quantum materials and learn about the first principles QEDFT perspective. Discover how light dressing can engineer symmetry breaking, leading to novel material properties. Examine the realization of non-equilibrium states of matter in molecular complexes and 2D materials, and understand the unique platform created by combining cavity-QED with 2D twisted van der Waals heterostructures. Gain insights into the newly developed quantum electrodynamics density-functional formalism (QEDFT) and its applications in predicting and controlling strongly interacting light-matter hybrids.
