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 …

Controlling vibrations in solids is crucial to tailor their elastic properties and interaction with
light. Thermal vibrations represent a source of noise and dephasing for many physical …

An array of radiatively coupled emitters provides a platform for generating, storing and
manipulating quantum light. However, the simultaneous positioning and tuning of several …

Confining photons in cavities enhances the interaction between light and matter. In cavity
optomechanics, this enables a wealth of phenomena ranging from optomechanically …

We show that spontaneous Raman scattering of incident radiation can be observed in cavity-
QED systems without external enhancement or coupling to any vibrational degree of …

We describe a numerical time-domain approach for high-accuracy calculations of Casimir-
Polder forces near microstructured materials. The use of a time-domain formulation enables …

An understanding of heat transport is relevant to developing efficient strategies for thermal
management in areas of study such as microelectronics, as well as for fundamental science …

Vibrational levels of the electronic ground states in dye molecules have not been previously
explored at a high resolution in solid matrices. We present new spectroscopic …

Organic fluorophores are excellent single photon sources, combining high brightness,
lifetime-limited linewidths and useful emission wavelengths. A key factor in their …

In this Letter we identify coherent electron-vibron interactions between near-resonant and
nonresonant electronic levels that contribute beyond standard optomechanical models for …
