Darrick Chang

Prof. Darrick Chang leads the Theoretical Quantum-Nano Photonics (TQNP) group at the Institut de Ciències Fotòniques (ICFO). His research focuses on quantum interactions between light and matter in nanoscale systems, exploring phenomena like atom-nanophotonics interfaces, quantum optics with atomic arrays, and optomechanics. The group develops theoretical tools for novel applications in quantum technologies.

Key research areas include quantum nanophotonics, 2D materials optics, and strongly correlated quantum systems. His work bridges fundamental theory with experimental collaborations worldwide. Recent contributions span atomic optical antennas in solids and quantum nonlinear optics using Rydberg atoms.

Prof. Chang supervises PhD students and postdocs in theoretical quantum nanophotonics, with application procedures through ICFO’s jobs portal. His group actively engages in advancing quantum technologies through interdisciplinary approaches.
