In this review, we present the theoretical foundations and first-principles frameworks to describe quantum matter within quantum electrodynamics (QED) in the low-energy regime …
Reaction-rate modifications for chemical processes due to strong coupling between reactant molecular vibrations and the cavity vacuum have been reported; however, no currently …
Over the past decade, the possibility of manipulating chemistry and material properties using hybrid light–matter states has stimulated considerable interest. Hybrid light–matter states …

Recent experiments suggest that ground state chemical reactivity can be modified when placing molecular systems inside infrared cavities where molecular vibrations are strongly …
Here, we review the design of optical cavities, transient and modulated responses, and theoretical models relevant to vibrational strong coupling (VSC). While planar Fabry–Perot …
The coherent exchange of energy between materials and optical fields leads to strong light– matter interactions and so-called polaritonic states with intriguing properties, halfway …
Chemical manifestations of strong light–matter coupling have recently been a subject of intense experimental and theoretical studies. Here we review the present status of this field …
Molecular polaritons result from light-matter coupling between optical resonances and molecular electronic or vibrational transitions. When the coupling is strong enough, new …
Experimental studies indicate that optical cavities can affect chemical reactions through either vibrational or electronic strong coupling and the quantized cavity modes. However …
