Yesterday, just in time before the holiday, Richarda submitted her PhD thesis. Woohoo!

Also, we have been quiet but productive with several new papers: First near-field imaging of shear polaritons in gallium oxide together with Josh‘s, Andrea‘s, and Lukas‘ teams, strongly coupled polaritons in SiC metasurfaces from Josh imaging with Richarda’s beautiful SFG microscope, and last week our joined review with Andrea‘s and Pablo‘s teams on phonon polaritons in strongly anisotropic polaritonic crystals. It was a productive year! Thanks to everyone we had the pleasure of working with.
