Theoretical advances in polariton chemistry and molecular cavity quantum electrodynamics

A Mandal, MAD Taylor, BM Weight… - Chemical …, 2023 - ACS Publications
When molecules are coupled to an optical cavity, new light–matter hybrid states, so-called
polaritons, are formed due to quantum light–matter interactions. With the experimental …

Spin-vibronic mechanism for intersystem crossing

TJ Penfold, E Gindensperger, C Daniel… - Chemical …, 2018 - ACS Publications
Intersystem crossing (ISC), formally forbidden within nonrelativistic quantum theory, is the
