Strong coupling-like phenomenon between plasmonic cavities and emitters provides a new way to realize the quantum-like effect controlling at microscale/nanoscale. We investigate the strong coupling-like phenomenon in the structure of single metallic nanoparticle embedded in molecular J-aggregates by the classical simulation method and show that the size of the metallic nanoparticle and the oscillator strength of molecular J-aggregates impact the strong coupling-like phenomenon. The strong coupling-like phenomenon is induced by the interactions between two dipoles formed by the metallic nanoparticle and molecular J-aggregates or the interactions between the dipole generated from molecular J-aggregates and the quadrupole generated from the metallic nanoparticle. The strong coupling-like phenomenon appears evidently with the increase in oscillator strength of molecular J-aggregates. The detuning energy linearly decreases with the increase in radius of the metallic nanoparticle. Our structure has potential applications in quantum networks, quantum key distributions and so on.

Molecular J-aggregates are widely used as emitters to achieve the quantum effects, such as the strong coupling phenomenon. We investigate the lateral shift splitting/Goos–Hänchen (GH) shift splitting induced by strong coupling in Kretschmann configuration involving molecular J-aggregates by using classical methods. The optical response of molecular J-aggregates is modeled by a single Lorentzian oscillator, and Fresnel equations and the stationary phase method are employed to solve our proposed structure. Our results show that the lateral shift versus the incident wavelength shows Rabi splitting-like line shape and the reflection spectrum exhibits the strong coupling phenomenon. Based on the results of the previous experiment work, we well explain the relation between Rabi splitting and the thickness of the metal film and provide a new method to choose the parameters of the structure for experiment.

In this letter, we investigated the modification of oscillator strength of an asymmetric stretching band of CS<sub>2</sub> by strong coupling to an infrared cavity photon. This is achieved by placing liquid CS<sub>2</sub> in a Fabry-Perot resonator and tune the cavity mode position to match with the molecular vibrational transition. Ultra-strong coupling improves the self-interaction of transition dipoles of asymmetric stretching band of CS<sub>2</sub> that resulted in an increase of its own oscillator strength. We experimentally proved this by taking the area ratio of asymmetric stretching and combination band by selectively coupling the former one. A non-linear increase in the oscillator strength of the asymmetric stretching band is observed upon varying the coupling strength. This is explained by a quantum mechanical model that predicts quadratic behavior under ultra-strong coupling condition. These findings will set up a new paradigm for understanding chemical reaction modification by vacuum field coupling.

Abstract Strong interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter leads to the formation of hybrid light-matter states, making the absorption and emission behavior different from those of the uncoupled states. Strong coupling effect results in the famous Rabi splitting and the emergence of new polaritonic eigenmodes, exhibiting spectral anticrossing behavior and unique energy-transfer properties. In recent years, there has been a rapidly increasing number of works focusing on strong coupling between nanostructures and two-dimensional materials (2DMs), because of the exceptional properties and applications they demonstrate. Here, we review the significant recent advances and important developments of strong light-matter interactions in 2DMs-based nanostructures. We adopt the coupled oscillator model to describe the strong coupling and give an overview of various hybrid nanostructures to realize this regime, including graphene-based nanostructures, black phosphorus-based nanostructures, transition-metal dichalcogenides-based nanostructures, etc. In addition, we discuss potential applications that can benefit from these effects and conclude our review with a perspective on the future of this rapidly emerging field.

AbstractThe complementary optical properties of surface plasmon excitations of metal nanostructures and long-lived excitations of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) make them excellent candidates for studies of optical coupling at the nanoscale level. Plasmonic devices confine light to nanometer-sized regions of space, which turns them into effective cavities for quantum emitters. QDs possess large oscillator strengths and high photostability, making them useful for studies down to the single-particle level. Depending on structure and energy scales, QD excitons and surface plasmons (SPs) can couple either weakly or strongly, resulting in different unique optical properties. While in the weak coupling regime plasmonic cavities (PCs) mostly enhance the radiative rate of an emitter, in the strong coupling regime the energy level of the two systems mix together, forming coupled matter-light states. The interaction of QD excitons with PCs has been widely investigated experimentally as well as theoretically, with an eye on potential applications ranging from sensing to quantum information technology. In this review we provide a comprehensive introduction to this exciting field of current research, and an overview of studies of QD-plasmon systems in the weak and strong coupling regimes.
