Research Interest
The last few years in Habil. Dr. Juzeliūnas developed the theory of quantum radiation in dielectric environments. He developed a polariton method for describing radiation quantification and applied it to the analysis of the transport of electron excitation between atoms or molecules in the environment. He recently modified the polariton model for the analysis of slow light in cold gas atoms. The problem of low light causes a great deal of interest from the scientific community regarding possible applications for the preservation of quantum information. Recently, G. Juzeliūnas examines new ways of the preservation and reproduction of slow light in cold gas atoms. He also explores new methods for creating an artificial magnetic field in cold gas atoms - Bose-Eistein atoms in condensates and degenerate Fermi gases.
