Universal Scaling and Many-Body Resurrection of Polaritonic Double-Quantum Coherences
Maxim Sukharev
The ultrafast nonlinear optical response of molecular ensembles is fundamentally altered under strong light-matter coupling. To rigorously isolate the genuine many-body contributio…
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…
Molecular polariton dynamics in realistic cavities
Carlos M. Bustamante, Franco P. Bonafé, Maxim Sukharev +3
The large number of degrees of freedom involved in polaritonic chemistry processes considerably restricts the systems that can be described by any ab initio approach, due to the re…
Unveiling the Dance of Molecules: Ro-Vibrational Dynamics of Molecules under Intense Illumination at Complex Plasmonic Interfaces
Maxim Sukharev, Joseph E. Subotnik, Abraham Nitzan
Understanding the quantum dynamics of strongly coupled molecule-cavity systems remains a significant challenge in molecular polaritonics. This work develops a comprehensive self-co…
