Light–matter interaction is a key branch of photonics/optical material science. As the
research emphasis in recent years has shifted from microscale toward nanoscale, light …

The fundamental understanding of the subtle interactions between molecules and plasmons
is of great significance for the development of plasmon‐enhanced spectroscopy (PES) …

We study a molecular emitter above a silver surface in the framework of macroscopic
quantum electrodynamics and explore the population dynamics including non-Markovian …

Optical nanoantennas provide control of light at the nanoscale, which makes them important
for diverse areas ranging from photocatalysis and flat metaoptics to sensors and …

Time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC) is an enabling technology for applications
such as low-light fluorescence lifetime microscopy and photon counting time-of-flight (ToF) …

Cascading optical processes involve sequential photon–matter interactions triggered by the
same individual excitation photons. Parts I and II of this series explored cascading optical …

The dynamics of photoinduced charge generation is studied for donor–acceptor (D–A)
organic interfaces, with focus on the interplay of quantum dynamics, decoherence effects …

When molecules are assembled into an aggregate, their mutual dipole–dipole interaction
leads to electronic eigenstates that are coherently delocalized over many molecules …

We experimentally study the optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) from deep
subwavelength gold-silver heterodimers, and silver-silver and gold-gold homodimers. Our …

We predict a new quantum electronic structure at the interface between two condensed
phases of noble-gas elements: solid neon and superfluid helium. An excess electron …
