Dipolaritons are a three-way superposition of photon, a direct exciton, and an indirect exciton that are formed in coupled quantum well microcavities. As is the case with exciton-polaritons, dipolaritons have a self-interaction due to…
Simulating the dynamics of molecular excitons in complex nanophotonic environments requires integrating rigorous electromagnetic simulations with accurate treatments of open quantum system dynamics. In this work, we develop MQED-QD…
Exciton-polaritons - coherently hybridized states of excitons and photons - are instrumental for solid-state nonlinear optics and quantum simulations. To enable engineered polariton energy landscapes and interactions, local control over the…
Excitons, composite electron-hole quasiparticles, are known to play an important role in optoelectronic phenomena in many semiconducting materials. Recent experiments and theory indicate that the band-gap optics of the newly discovered…
We propose an optoelectronic scheme to define and manipulate an indirect neutral exciton qubit within a quantum dot molecule. We demonstrate coherent dynamics of indirect excitons resilient against decoherence effects, including direct…
Exciton-polaritons are mutually interacting quantum hybridizations of confined photons and electronic excitations. Here we demonstrate a system of optically guided, electrically polarized exciton-polaritons ('dipolaritons') that displays up…
Quantum simulation is a promising approach to understand complex strongly correlated many-body systems using relatively simple and tractable systems. Photon-based quantum simulators have great advantages due to the possibility of direct…
In recent years, a rigorous quantum mechanical model for the interaction between light and macroscopic dispersive, lossy dielectrics has emerged -macroscopic QED- allowing the application of the usual methods of quantum field theory. Here,…
We investigate the microscopic description of exciton-polaritons that involves electrons, holes and photons within a two-dimensional microcavity. We show that in order to recover the simplified exciton-photon model that is typically used to…
Strong coupling between excitons and confined modes of light presents a promising pathway to tunable and enhanced energy transport in organic materials. By forming hybrid light-matter quasiparticles, exciton-polaritons, electronic…
Dipolaritons are quasiparticles that arise in coupled quantum wells embedded in a microcavity, they are a superposition of a photon, a direct exciton and an indirect exciton. We propose the existence of dipolaritons in a system of two…
The interaction potential of a two-dimensional system of excitons with spatially separated electron-hole layers is considered in the strong magnetic field limit. The excitons are assumed to have free dynamics in the $x$-$y$ plane, while…
The main objective of the present work is the development of an analytically tractable model of screened electron-electron and electron-exciton interactions in layered systems composed of two parallel semiconductor quantum wells separated…
We examine the quantum coherence properties of tubulin heterodimers arranged into the protofilaments of cytoskeletal microtubules. In the physical model proposed by the authors, the microtubule interiors are treated as high-Q quantum…
We provide a theoretical description for the coupling between the intersubband excitations of a bi-dimensional electron gas with the electromagnetic field. This description, based on the electrical dipole gauge, applies to an arbitrary…
The dynamics of pigment-pigment and pigment-protein interactions in light-harvesting complexes is studied with a novel approach which combines molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with quantum chemistry (QC) calculations. The MD simulations…
Spatially indirect excitons in semiconducting double quantum wells have been shown to exhibit rich collective many-body behavior that result from the nature of the extended dipole-dipole interactions between particles. For many…
Interlayer excitons (IXs) in hetero-bilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) represent an exciting emergent class of long-lived dipolar composite bosons in an atomically thin, near-ideal two-dimensional (2D) system. The…
Due to a strong Coulomb interaction, excitons dominate the excitation kinetics in 2D materials. While Coulomb-scattering between electrons has been well studied, the interaction of excitons is more challenging and remains to be explored. As…
Non-covalent interactions are a key ingredient to determine the structure, stability, and dynamics of materials, molecules, and biological complexes. However, accurately capturing these interactions is a complex quantum many-body problem,…
