Research
Christian’s research is pushing the limits of theoretical quantum mechanics interacting with optical and plasmonic fields. This includes contributions to ab initio quantum electrodynamics, polaritonic chemistry, (quantum electrodynamical) density-functional theory, chiral polaritonics, and variational quantum algorithms. His Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship is focused on the control of plasmonic catalysis using optical control strategies.
