The interaction between molecular electronic transitions and electromagnetic fields can be
enlarged to the point where distinct hybrid light–matter states, polaritons, emerge. The …

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 …

Photonic bound states in the continuum (BICs) provide a standout platform for strong light-
matter coupling with transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) but have so far mostly been …

The field of two-dimensional (2D) materials-based nanophotonics has been growing at a
rapid pace, triggered by the ability to design nanophotonic systems with in situ control …

A single quantum dot (QD) strongly coupled with a plasmonic nanoparticle yields a
promising qubit for scalable solid-state quantum information processing at room …

Plasmonic phenomena in metals are commonly explored within the framework of classical
electrodynamics and semiclassical models for the interactions of light with free-electron …

Semiconductors in all dimensionalities ranging from 0D quantum dots and molecules to 3D
bulk crystals support bound electron–hole pair quasiparticles termed excitons. Over the past …

In the past decade, much theoretical research has focused on studying the strong coupling
between organic molecules (or quantum emitters, in general) and light modes. The …

Microcavities and nanoresonators have the ability to strongly enhance many light–matter-
interaction processes used in various applications in nano-optics. This enhancement is due …

The tremendous growth of the field of plasmonics in the past twenty years owes much to the
pre-existence of solid theoretical foundations. Rather than calling for the introduction of …
