We investigate the effects of coupling a quantum-magnetic cavity field to molecules. Our high-precision auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo calculations capture the effect of the cavity field in the presence of electron correlations, and…
The interactions between light and matter are strongly enhanced when atoms are placed in high-finesse quantum cavities, offering tantalizing opportunities for generating exotic new quantum phases. In this work we show that both spin-orbit…
Coupling between molecules and vacuum photon fields inside an optical cavity has proven to be an effective way to engineer molecular properties, in particular reactivity. To ease the rationalization of cavity induced effects we introduce an…
A system of magnetic molecules coupled to microwave cavities ($LC$ resonators) undergoes the equilibrium superradiant phase transition. The transition is experimentally observable. The effect of the coupling is first illustrated by the…
Here we present a fundamental study on how the ground-state chemical reactivity of a molecule can be modified in a QED scenario, i.e., when it is placed inside a cavity and there is strong coupling between the cavity field and vibrational…
The emerging field of strongly coupled light-matter systems has drawn significant attention in recent years due to the prospect of altering physical and chemical properties of molecules and materials. Because this emerging field draws on…
Recent theoretical studies have explored how ultra-strong light--matter coupling can be used as a handle to control chemical transformations. {\em Ab initio} cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) calculations demonstrate that large changes…
The ionization of molecular systems is important in many chemical processes such as electron transfer and hot electron injection. Strong coupling between molecules and quantized fields (e.g. inside optical cavities) represents a new…
In this work, we present the analytical derivation and implementation of the quantum electrodynamics Hartree-Fock Hessian. We investigate how electronic strong coupling influences molecular vibrational properties, applying this framework to…
Intermolecular bonds are weak compared to covalent bonds, but they are strong enough to influence the properties of large molecular systems. In this work, we investigate how strong light-matter coupling inside an optical cavity can modify…
Understanding physical properties of quantum emitters strongly interacting with quantized electromagnetic modes is one of the primary goals in the emergent field of waveguide quantum electrodynamics (QED). When the light-matter coupling…
We apply magnetic fields of up to 7 T to an indium arsenide (InAs) quantum dot (QD) strongly coupled to a photonic crystal cavity. The field lifts the degeneracy of QD exciton spin states, and tune their emission energy by a combination of…
Catalyzing reactions effectively by vacuum fluctuations of electromagnetic fields is a significant challenge within the realm of chemistry. Different from most studies based on vibrational strong coupling, we introduce an innovative…
The orbital and spin magnetization of a cavity-embedded quantum dot array defined in a GaAs heterostructure are calculated within quantum-electrodynamical density-functional theory (QEDFT). To this end a gradient-based exchange-correlation…
The demonstration of strong and ultrastrong coupling regimes of cavity QED with polyatomic molecules has opened new routes to control chemical dynamics at the nanoscale. We show that strong resonant coupling of a cavity field with an…
In this work, we provide an overview of how well-established concepts in the fields of quantum chemistry and material sciences have to be adapted when the quantum nature of light becomes important in correlated matter-photon problems.…
This letter investigates the applications and extensions of the resource theory of quantum superposition within the realm of quantum chemistry. Specifically, we explore aromaticity, a fundamental concept originally developed to elucidate…
Many effects in the interaction between atoms and a cavity that are usually de-scribed in quantum mechanical terms (cavity quantum electrodynamics, cavity QED) can be understood and quantitatively analyzed within a classical framework. We…
We measure the quantum speed of the state evolution of the field in a weakly-driven optical cavity QED system. To this end, the mode of the electromagnetic field is considered as a quantum system of interest with a preferential coupling to…
We theoretically explore manipulation of interactions between excited and ground state atoms at nanoscale separations by cavity quantum electrodynamics (CQED). We develop an adiabatic molecular dressed state formalism and show that it is…
