Prof. Barbara Piętka received a doctorate at the University of Warsaw in Poland and at the Université Joseph Fourier in Grenoble, France. She gained professional experience working in France, Switzerland and Germany. She has built a research group focused on the study of non-equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensates of exciton-polaritons at the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw in Poland, where she has been working since 2010. The main topic of her interests are quantum phenomena occurring in the regime of nonlinear light-matter coupled systems. She is concentrated on semiconductor materials, two-dimensional layered materials, perovskites and dielectric structures. She is looking for efficient, room-temperature solutions for non-linear photonic information processing.
