Gating upconversion electroluminescence in a single molecule via adsorption-induced interaction of unpaired spin
Vibhuti N. Rai, Christof Holzer, Carsten Rockstuhl +2
Molecules with unpaired spins (radicals) offer promising alternatives to closed-shell molecules as they are less limited regarding the spin statistics in their electroluminescence.…
Predicting the optical properties of organometallic nanoparticles with a scale-bridging method: The importance of the embedding
Mariia Poleva, Benedikt Zerulla, Christof Holzer +7
It remains a prime question of how to describe the optical properties of large molecular clusters accurately. Quantum chemical methods capture essential electronic details but are…
A Tensor Product Space for Studying the Interaction of Bipartite States of Light with Nanostructures
Lukas Freter, Benedikt Zerulla, Marjan Krstić +3
Pairs of entangled photons are important for applications in quantum nanophotonics, where their theoretical description must accommodate their bipartite character. Such character i…
Polarization-dependent effects in vibrational absorption spectra of 2D finite-size adsorbate islands on dielectric substrates
Benedikt Zerulla, Marjan Krstić, Shuang Chen +9
In the last years, Infrared Reflection-Absorption Spectroscopy (IRRAS) became a standard technique to study vibrational excitations of molecules. These investigations are strongly…
Surface Second Harmonic Generation in Centrosymmetric Molecular Crystalline Materials: How Thick is the Surface?
Benedikt Zerulla, Alejandro Luna Díaz, Christof Holzer +3
Second harmonic generation (SHG) is forbidden in centrosymmetric molecular materials. However, a signal is frequently observed from interfaces where the symmetry is broken. Whereas…
A digital twin for a chiral sensing platform
Markus Nyman, Xavier Garcia-Santiago, Marjan Krstić +7
Nanophotonic concepts can improve many measurement techniques by enhancing and tailoring the light-matter interaction. However, the optical response of devices that implement such…
