Daniel Wigger

Dr. Daniel Wigger serves as a Research Fellow within the Quantum Nanophotonics group at Trinity College Dublin, specializing in computational modeling of ultrafast light-matter interactions in nanoscale systems including quantum dots, hexagonal boron nitride color centers, and transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers.

His core research encompasses:

• Quantum Optics & Quantum Acoustics
• Ultrafast Nonlinear Spectroscopy techniques
• Two-Dimensional Materials & Single-Photon Emitter physics
• Phonon-mediated quantum processes

Recent publications (2021-2022) demonstrate consistent focus on quantum coherence phenomena in solid-state nanostructures, with particular emphasis on phonon interactions in 2D materials and color centers. His work bridges quantum optics, condensed matter physics, and nanophotonics to advance hybrid phonon-based quantum technologies through close collaboration with experimental teams.

Funding includes the ULAM project (2020-2022) from the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA). While no formal advisees are documented, his research methodology involves extensive experimental collaborations across international institutions.

As an integral member of Trinity College Dublin's Quantum Nanophotonics group, Dr. Wigger contributes to advancing quantum simulation methodologies for next-generation quantum information systems and sensing applications.
