Abstract
Light-matter coupling strength and optical loss are two key physical quantities in cavity quantum electrodynamics (cQED), and their interplay determines whether light-matter hybrid states can be formed or not in chemical systems. In this study, by using macroscopic quantum electrodynamics (mQED) combined with a pseudomode approach, we present a simple but accurate method which allows us to quickly estimate the light-matter coupling strength and optical loss without free parameters. Moreover, for a molecular emitter coupled with photonic modes (including cavity modes and plasmon polartion modes), we analytically and numerically prove that the dynamics derived from the mQED-based wavefunction approach is mathematically equivalent to the dynamics governed by the cQED-based Lindblad master equation when the Purcell factor behaves like Lorentzians.
