Dasom graduated with his PhD from the Kono lab in 2025. His thesis, titled "Ultrastrong Vacuum-Matter Interactions in Semiconductors and Magnets" explored the interaction between matter and cavity photons, formed by quantum vacuum fluctuations enhanced by an optical cavity. His work included the use of rare-earth orthoferrite materials as quantum simulators for light-matter interaction, culminating in the observation of a magnonic superradiant phase transition in ErFeO3. He also studied numerous other avenues for coupling matter to cavity photons, developing novel quantum optical strategies for creating and controlling novel phases in condensed matter. 

Dasom will pursue postdoctoral research in the lab of Andrea Cavallari at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of matter in Hamburg, Germany.
