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

The coherent superposition of states, in combination with the quantization of observables,
represents one of the most fundamental features that mark the departure of quantum …

We introduce a rigorous framework for the quantification of coherence and identify intuitive
and easily computable measures of coherence. We achieve this by adopting the viewpoint …

Photosynthetic organisms are crucial for life on Earth as they provide food and oxygen and
are at the basis of most energy resources. They have a large variety of light-harvesting …

Optically active molecular materials, such as organic conjugated polymers and biological
systems, are characterized by strong coupling between electronic and vibrational degrees of …

Although it has been known for almost half a century that migratory birds can detect the
direction of the Earth's magnetic field, the primary sensory mechanism behind this …

Quantum coherence is an essential ingredient in quantum information processing and plays
a central role in emergent fields such as nanoscale thermodynamics and quantum biology …

Quantifying coherence is an essential endeavor for both quantum foundations and quantum
technologies. Here, the robustness of coherence is defined and proven to be a full …

Through the use of the limited materials palette, optimally designed micro-and
nanostructures, and tightly regulated processes, nature demonstrates exquisite control of …

Photosynthesis powers life on our planet. The basic photosynthetic architecture consists of
antenna complexes that harvest solar energy and reaction centres that convert the energy …
