Steady--State Current Signatures of Strong Light--Matter Coupling in Single--Molecule Junctions

Kritanjan Polley, Norah M. Hoffmann

Strong light-matter coupling offers exciting opportunities for controlling molecular properties, yet resolving single-molecule behavior from collective effects remains a challenge.…

A Windowed Mean Trajectory Approximation for Condensed Phase Dynamics

Kritanjan Polley

We propose a trajectory-based quasiclassical method for approximating dynamics in condensed phase systems. Building upon the previously developed Optimized Mean Trajectory (OMT) ap…

Elucidating the mechanism of helium evaporation from liquid water

Kritanjan Polley, Kevin R. Wilson, David T. Limmer

We investigate the evaporation of trace amounts of helium solvated in liquid water using molecular dynamics simulations and theory. Consistent with experimental observations, we fi…

On the Statistical Mechanics of Mass Accommodation at Liquid-Vapor Interfaces

Kritanjan Polley, Kevin R. Wilson, David T. Limmer

We propose a framework for describing the dynamics associated with the adsorption of small molecules to liquid-vapor interfaces, using an intermediate resolution between traditiona…
