Physical Chemistry Seminar: “New Experimental Platforms for Molecular Polaritonics” (Marissa L. Weichman, Princeton University)

Carolyn Hoff Lynch Lecture Hall (Chemistry Complex) 433 South University Avenue, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Title: "New Experimental Platforms for Molecular Polaritonics"  Abstract: Polaritons are hybrid light-matter states with unusual properties that arise from strong interactions between a molecular ensemble and the confined electromagnetic field of an optical cavity. Cavity-coupled molecules appear to demonstrate energetics, reactivity, and photophysics distinct from their free-space counterparts, but the mechanisms and scope of these...
