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

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 …

Reaction-rate modifications for chemical processes due to strong coupling between reactant
molecular vibrations and the cavity vacuum have been reported; however, no currently …

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 …

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 …

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 …

Polariton chemistry has emerged as an appealing branch of synthetic chemistry that
promises mode selectivity and a cleaner approach to kinetic control. Of particular interest are …

Experiments at the interface of quantum optics and chemistry have revealed that strong
coupling between light and matter can substantially modify the chemical and physical …

Discoveries in quantum materials, which are characterized by the strongly quantum-
mechanical nature of electrons and atoms, have revealed exotic properties that arise from …
