We explore the dynamics of two-dimensional Rydberg atom arrays coupled to a single-mode optical cavity, employing nonequilibrium diagrammatic techniques to capture nonlinearities and fluctuations beyond mean-field theory. We discover a…
When the interaction between a molecular system and confined light modes in an optical or plasmonic cavity is strong enough to overcome the dissipative process, hybrid light-matter states (polaritons) become the fundamental excitations in…
A simple and very flexible variational approach to the out-of-equilibrium quantum dynamics in strongly correlated electron systems is introduced through a time-dependent Gutzwiller wavefunction. As an application, we study the simple case…
We study a driven-dissipative system of atoms in the presence of laser excitation to a Rydberg state and spontaneous emission. The atoms interact via the blockade effect, whereby an atom in the Rydberg state shifts the Rydberg level of…
A quantitative and predictive theory of quantum light-matter interactions in ultra thin materials involves several fundamental challenges. Any realistic model must simultaneously account for the ultra-confined plasmonic modes and their…
Quantum simulations of photoexcited low-dimensional systems are pivotal for understanding how to functionalize and integrate novel two-dimensional (2D) materials in next-generation optoelectronic devices. First principles predictions are…
A series of experiments demonstrate that strong light-matter coupling between vibrational excitations in isotropic solutions of molecules and resonant infrared optical microcavity modes leads to modified thermally-activated kinetics.…
We investigate a mean-field approach to a quantum brownian particle interacting with a quantum thermal bath at temperature $T$, and subjected to a non-linear potential. An exact, partially classical description of quantum brownian motion is…
Domain wall dynamics in ferroic materials underpins functionality of data storage and information technology devices. Using localized electric field of a scanning probe microscopy tip, we experimentally demonstrate a surprisingly rich range…
The Landau-Fermi liquid picture for quasiparticles assumes that charge carriers are dressed by many-body interactions, forming one of the fundamental theories of solids. Whether this picture still holds for a semimetal like graphene at the…
The equations for phase transitions temperatures, order parameters and critical concentrations of components have been derived for mixed ferroelectrics. The electric dipoles randomly distributed over the system were considered as a random…
Using the Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire approach, we study light-induced phase transitions, evolution of polar state and domain morphology in photo-ferroelectric nanoparticles (NPs). Light exposure increases the free carrier density near the…
A theoretical analysis of the ground state of long-chain (K@C$_{60}$)$_n$ is presented. Within mean field theory, a ferroelectric ground state is found to be stable because of the pseudo-Jahn-Teller mixing of the b$_{1u}$ and the b$_{2g}$…
We study an ensemble of strongly coupled electrons under continuous microwave irradiation interacting with a dissipative environment, a problem of relevance to the creation of highly polarized non-equilibrium states in nuclear magnetic…
Mean field theory is applied to nonequilibrium thermal energy transport in a model molecular junction. An approximation to the total time-dependent heat current in the junction is constructed using an ensemble of Ehrenfest trajectories, and…
The LDA+DMFT approach merges conventional band structure theory in the local density approximation (LDA) with a state-of-the-art many-body technique, the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). This new computational scheme has recently become…
Many active matter systems, especially on the microscopic scale, are well approximated as overdamped, meaning that any inertial momentum is immediately dissipated by the environment. On the other hand, especially for macroscopic active…
We present a model of interacting quantum fields, formulated in a non-perturbative manner. One of the fields is treated semi-classically, the other is the photon field. The model has an interpretation of an electromagnetic field in a…
Light-manipulation of correlated electronic phases in solids offers the tantalizing prospect of realizing electronic devices operating at the ultrafast time-scale. In this context, the experimental realization of non-equilibrium transitions…
Reversible exchange of photons between a material and an optical cavity can lead to the formation of hybrid light--matter states where material properties such as the work function\cite{Hutchison_AM2013a}, chemical…
