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

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 …

The coherent exchange of energy between materials and optical fields leads to strong light–
matter interactions and so-called polaritonic states with intriguing properties, halfway …

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 …

Two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES) is a popular technique that can track
ultrafast coherent and incoherent processes in real time. Since its development in the late …

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

This is a tutorial-style introduction to the field of molecular polaritons. We describe the basic
physical principles and consequences of strong light–matter coupling common to molecular …

Selective vibrational energy transfer between molecules in the liquid phase, a difficult
process hampered by weak intermolecular forces, is achieved through polaritons formed by …

Vibrational strong coupling (VSC) between molecular vibrations and microcavity photons
yields a few polaritons (light-matter modes) and many dark modes (with negligible photonic …

Collective strong coupling between a disordered ensemble of N localized molecular
vibrations and a resonant optical cavity mode gives rise to two polariton and N-1≫ 2 dark …
