• Authors: Arkajit Mandal, Sebastian Montillo Vega, Pengfei Huo
• Abstract summary: We use the polarized Fock states to describe the coupled molecule-cavity hybrid system in quantum electrodynamics. The molecular permanent dipoles polarize the photon field by displacing its vector potential, leading to non-orthogonality between the Fock states of two different polarized photon fields.

• Abstract: We use the polarized Fock states to describe the coupled molecule-cavity hybrid system in quantum electrodynamics. The molecular permanent dipoles polarize the photon field by displacing its vector potential, leading to non-orthogonality between the Fock states of two different polarized photon fields. These polarized Fock states allow an intuitive understanding of several new phenomena that go beyond the prediction of the quantum Rabi model, and at the same time, offer numerical convenience to converge the results. We further exploit this non-orthogonality to generate multiple photons from a single electronic excitation (downconversion) and control the photochemical reactivity.

  We show that there exists an interplay between photon polarization and emission wavevector, strongly affecting quantum correlations when emitters are embedded in micro-cavities. Our results, backed by theoretical modelling, yield a brand-new understanding of cascaded emission for various quantum emitters.

• Room-temperature optical spin polarization of an electron spin qudit in a vanadyl -- free base porphyrin dimer [35.34500698545813]
  Photoexcited organic chromophores appended to molecular qubits can serve as a source of spin initialization or multi-level qudit generation for quantum information applications. Time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance (TREPR) experiments carried out at both 85 K and room temperature reveal the formation of a long-lived spin-polarized quartet state. Exploiting this phenomenon affords the possibility of using photoinduced triplet states in porphyrins for quantum information as a resource to polarize and magnetically couple molecular electronic or nuclear spin qubits and qudits.

  We show how isotropic Dirac-photons can lead to non-exponential spontaneous emission as well as dissipation-less long-range emitter interactions. In particular, we show how by changing the anisotropy of the lattice one can change both the spatial shape of the interactions as well as its coherent/incoherent nature.

  We develop two novel models of the H$+$ molecule and its isotopes. We assess quantum-mechanically and semi-classically whether the molecule anti-aligns with the field in the first excited electronic state. We conclude that the stabilization of these molecules in the excited state through bond-hardening under a strong field is highly unlikely.
