Description
In this talk, I will present our work on the quantitative description of the cavity for strongly coupled light-matter systems.
I will discuss how Macroscopic Quantum Electrodynamics (MQED) can be combined with high-level quantum chemistry methods for molecular systems. I will also explore how we are using these methods to develop new quantum optomechanical devices. Specifically, I will highlight our new scheme for single-photon generation in the MIR and its potential impact on quantum-limited biospectroscopy.
Finally, I will touch upon our latest ideas on the inverse design of quantum properties, linking electronic-structure theory with MQED to predict and control light–matter coupling. I'll conclude by discussing how this aligns with emerging opportunities in chemistry and materials engineering under non-perturbative light–matter interactions.
