The theoretical description of molecular polaritons and their properties is still subject to many open questions. In the past years we studied a variety of effects, such as dissipation, to determine its influence on the photochemistry. More recently we have implement Hartree-Fock with the cavity Born-Oppenheimer approximation to investigate the multi-molecule effects in the electronic ground...
Cooperative effects in complex, coupled quantum systems, cannot be understood by sole consideration of the individual constituents, as they arise from the interplay among them. Light-matter platforms provide an optimal playground for the observation and exploitation of quantum cooperative effects [1]. For example, structured subwavelength arrays of quantum emitters trapped in optical lattices,...
In this presentation, I will review some recent experimental [1,2] and theoretical attempts [3,4] to design innovative electromagnetic cavities for chiral-sensing purposes or polaritonic chemistry. In particular, I will focus on the interplay between the degree of polarization of the optical cavitymode and the intra-cavity light-matter interactions, exhibiting some difficulties to enhance...
