Inaki Garcia Elcano

Iñaki Garcia Elcano is a Postdoctoral Research Scientist in the Department of Physics at Columbia University. His research focuses on quantum optics, topological photonics, and condensed matter physics, with an emphasis on light-matter interactions in Weyl systems. He completed his PhD at the Autonomous University of Madrid, where his work explored quantum phenomena arising from emitter-topological photon coupling.

Current research investigates correlated light-matter interfaces and quantum many-body effects in topological systems. His work bridges AMO physics, photonics, and condensed matter, with recent publications addressing Weyl-dense atomic arrays and Fermi arc surface states.
