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…
Density-Functional Tight Binding Meets Maxwell: Unraveling the Mysteries of (Strong) Light-Matter Coupling Efficiently
Dominik Sidler, Carlos M. Bustamante, Franco P. Bonafe +3
Controlling chemical and material properties through strong light-matter coupling in optical cavities has gained considerable attention over the past decade. However, the underlyin…
Linear-Response Quantum-Electrodynamical Density Functional Theory Based on Two-Component X2C Hamiltonians
Lukas Konecny, Valeriia P. Kosheleva, Michael Ruggenthaler +2
Linear-response quantum electrodynamical density functional theory (QEDFT) enables the description of molecular spectra under strong coupling to quantized photonic modes, such as t…
Local-density correlation functional from the force-balance equation
Nicolas Tancogne-Dejean, Markus Penz, Michael Ruggenthaler +1
The force-balance equation of time-dependent density-functional theory presents a promising route towards obtaining approximate functionals, however, so far, no practical correlati…
Collectively-modified inter-molecular electron correlations: The connection of polaritonic chemistry and spin glass physics
Dominik Sidler, Michael Ruggenthaler, Angel Rubio
Polaritonic chemistry has garnered increasing attention in recent years due to pioneering experimental results, which show that site- and bond-selective chemistry at room temperatu…
The relevance of degenerate states in chiral polaritonics
Carlos M. Bustamante, Dominik Sidler, Michael Ruggenthaler +1
In this work we explore theoretically whether a parity-violating/chiral light-matter interaction is required to capture all relevant aspects of chiral polaritonics or if a parity-c…
