New opportunities for light-matter control of quantum materials — •Michael Sentef — Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter, Hamburg

In this talk I will discuss recent progress in controlling and inducing materials properties with light [1]. Specifically I will discuss recent experiments showing light-induced superconducting-like optical responses through phonon driving in an organic kappa salt [2], and their possible theoretical explanation via dynamical Hubbard U [3]. I will then highlight some recent theoretical and experimental progress in cavity quantum materials [4,5], where the classical laser as a driving field of light-induced properties is replaced by quantum fluctuations of light in confined geometries. Ideas and open questions for future work will be outlined.
