Cavity Control
We are interested in how the strong coupling to optical or terahertz cavities can affect the ground states of many-body quantum systems. This can involve the coupling of cold atomic gases to ring cavities as illustrated in the left panel,

the coupling of two-dimensional electron gases to (driven) nanoplasmonic terahertz cavities in the central panel,

or the coupling of strongly correlated materials to a cavity in the right panel.
