Vibrational Dressing of Collective Molecular Polaritons: A Scalable Green's-Function Theory

Wenxiang Ying, Michael Galperin, Abraham Nitzan

We develop a scalable Green's-function theory of vibrationally dressed molecular-polariton absorption in the Holstein--Tavis--Cummings model. Within the self-consistent Born approx…
