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 …

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 …

Plasmonic nanogaps in strongly coupled metal nanostructures can confine light to
nanoscale regions, leading to huge electric field enhancement. This unique capability …

A new research field is emerging in which ensembles of molecules are collectively
hybridised with light in a process known as strong coupling. This hybridisation leads to the …

The surface‐enhanced counterparts of Raman scattering (SERS) and infrared (IR)
absorption (SEIRAS) are commonly used to probe and identify nanoscale matter and small …

Vibrational strong coupling is an emerging method for modulation of ground-state molecular
properties. Spectroscopic information about the vibrational coupling state is essential for …

Strong coupling of molecular vibrations with light creates polariton states, enabling control
over many optical and chemical properties. However, the near-field signatures of strong …

Raman spectroscopy is a powerful technique that enables fingerprinting of materials,
molecules, and chemical environments by probing vibrational resonances. In many …

Vibrational strong coupling results from the interaction between optically allowed molecular
vibrational excitations and the resonant mode of an infrared cavity. Strong coupling leads to …

We present an experimental investigation of vibrational strong coupling of C═ O bonds in
poly (methyl methacrylate) to surface lattice resonances (SLRs) on arrays of gold particles in …
