Abrikosov Center for Theoretical Physics | Russia
Alexey V. Kavokin is a theoretical physicist affiliated with the Abrikosov Center for Theoretical Physics in Moscow, Russian Federation, recognized for his extensive contributions to exciton-polariton physics, spin dynamics, and semiconductor photonics. He holds a Master’s degree in Physics from Saint Petersburg State Polytechnical University (1986–1992) and earned his PhD in Physics (Coherent Light and Matter) from the Ioffe Institute, Saint Petersburg (1992–1993). Kavokin has held research appointments internationally, including service at CNR-SPIN in Rome, Italy (2014–2018). His research spans excitons, spin phenomena, lasers, and semiconductor systems, with additional interests in topological photonics, neuromorphic polariton networks, optical spin Hall effects, and polariton condensate dynamics. He has authored over 560 documents, accumulating more than 19,000 citations and achieving an h-index of 68, reflecting his broad influence across optics, condensed matter physics, and spin-optronics. His work includes investigations of polariton lattices, topological photonic states, spin noise in Bose-Einstein condensates, vortex molecules, and room-temperature optical spin Hall transport. His ongoing scholarship continues to shape the fields of exciton-polariton condensates, semiconductor microcavities, and polariton-based devices.
