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…
The effect of light scattering in cavity electrodynamics: Fresnel equations with decoherence
Natalya A. Zimbovskaya, Abraham Nitzan
We consider the effect of light decoherence in a Fabri-Perot (FP) microcavity. We show that, when present, it may significantly change its linear response to the incident light.The…
Chiral vibrational modes and vibrational circular dichroism
Xuecheng Tao, Clàudia Climent, Ethan Abraham +2
The recent interest in chiral phonons in a variety of physical phenomena and their hypothesized role in the chiral-induced spin selectivity effect [Phys. Rev. Research, 5, L022039…
A Mesoscopic Ginzburg--Landau Model for Vibrational Strong Coupling Enhanced Rayleigh Scattering in Molecular Liquids
Wenxiang Ying, Abraham Nitzan
Recent experiments by Sandeep \textit{et al.} [Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 65, e16917 (2026)] suggest that vibrational strong coupling (VSC) in molecular liquids can generate mesoscopic…
Thermal chemical reactivity in Frenkel exciton-polariton cavities
Bingyu Cui, Abraham Nitzan
Hybrid light-matter states formed under strong coupling between molecular excitations and confined electromagnetic modes provide a potential route to modify chemical properties. He…
Raman spectroscopy at metal interfaces: A numerical study of the strong coupling regime
Zeyu Zhou, Maxim Sukharev, Abraham Nitzan +1
We investigate how proximity to a metal nanostructure, particularly to a flat mirror or a cavity confined between two mirrors, affects the vibronic structure of Raman scattering si…
Excitation density controlled regimes of collective light--matter dynamics
Wenxiang Ying, Abraham Nitzan
Theoretical descriptions of collective light--matter dynamics often rely on the mean-field (MF) or single-excitation (SE) approximations, yet the parameter regimes where they apply…
Chirality-sensitive mobility and dissipation of Brownian motion on a helical landscape
Debankur Bhattacharyya, Abraham Nitzan
We study the Brownian dynamics and linear response of a particle with inertia moving in a 2-dimensional helical landscape imprinted on a cylindrical surface. In the harmonic well a…
Linear and nonlinear vibrational excitation driven by molecular polaritons
Wenxiang Ying, Carlos M. Bustamante, Franco P. Bonafé +5
Following our recent numerical study [arXiv:2601.16299 (2026)], we investigate vibrational excitation induced by transient optical driving in molecular ensembles strongly coupled t…
Interference Limited Absorption in Dense Molecular Nanolayers Near Reflecting Surfaces
Zeyu Zhou, Maxim Sukharev, Abraham Nitzan +1
We investigate linear resonant absorption by a dense ensemble of molecules confined to a subwavelength layer in two geometries: (i) a free-standing film in homogeneous space and (i…
Collective Rabi-driven vibrational activation in molecular polaritons
Carlos M. Bustamante, Franco P. Bonafé, Richard Richardson +5
Molecular polaritons arise from electronic or vibrational strong coupling (ESC and VSC) with confined electromagnetic fields. While these have been widely studied, the influence of…
