Pre-print advertisement: "The role of non-equilibrium populations in dark exciton formation" In 2D semiconductors, following the excitation of bright excitons, many-particle scattering can lead to the formation of lower-energy dark excitonic states. Importantly, the initial population in these dark states may be in a non-equilibrium condition and subsequent scattering events are necessary for the thermalization of the excitonic distribution.

New publication in Nature Physics: "Observation of Floquet states in graphene" Floquet engineering works. As the Kapitza pendulum finds new equilibria due to time-dependent shaking (check-out Youtube videos!), so can quantum materials.
