Short Bio

I was born in 88' in Ankara. I received my B.Sc. & Ph.D. degrees from Bilkent University (Physics) in 2009 & 2016 respectively. Before starting as an assistant professor at Hacettepe University in 2021, I worked as a postdoc at NANOTAM (Bilkent University), as a lecturer at Universität Graz (Austria) and as a researcher at NANOTAM, in chronological order. My research areas include (theoretical) condensed matter physics, quantum optics and quantum information & computation.

Research

Condensed Matter Physics: Condensed Matter Physics covers a vast amount of interesting topics. From those my spesific interest is on the systems that display unconventional superconductivity, such as Bose-Einstein Condensation of Excitons, a.k.a. Exciton Condensation.

Parity-Time Symmetry: After Carl Bender's groundbreaking studies in late 90's, concept of PT-symmetry has been adopted in many different field of physics, including optics, photonics, acoustic, optoelectronics and condensed matter physics. My recent research concentrates on formulation of PT-symmetric theories for condensed matter systems.

Quantum Optics & Quantum Computation: I study light-matter interaction in different geometries. A recent focus being on the Penrose unilluminable room geometry. I also study exciton-polariton condensates.
