BACKGROUND One of the most important phenomena in cavity quantum electrodynamics
(cQED) is the so-called strong coupling regime, which appears when the interaction …

Recent years have witnessed an explosion of interest in quantum devices for the production,
storage, and transfer of energy. This Colloquium concentrates on the field of quantum …

The interaction between molecular electronic transitions and electromagnetic fields can be
enlarged to the point where distinct hybrid light–matter states, polaritons, emerge. The …

Over the past decade, the possibility of manipulating chemistry and material properties using
hybrid light–matter states has stimulated considerable interest. Hybrid light–matter states …

Here, we review the design of optical cavities, transient and modulated responses, and
theoretical models relevant to vibrational strong coupling (VSC). While planar Fabry–Perot …

Conspectus The notion that light and matter states can be hybridized the way s and p
orbitals are mixed is a concept that is not familiar to most chemists and material scientists …

Chemical manifestations of strong light–matter coupling have recently been a subject of
intense experimental and theoretical studies. Here we review the present status of this field …

Many chemical methods have been developed to favor a particular product in
transformations of compounds that have two or more reactive sites. We explored a different …

Molecules are the building blocks of all of nature's functional components, serving as the
machinery that captures, stores and releases energy or converts it into useful work …

Molecular polaritons result from light-matter coupling between optical resonances and
molecular electronic or vibrational transitions. When the coupling is strong enough, new …
