“…Here, 0 is the permittivity of the vacuum and V eff α is the effective quantization volume [34] that depends on the nature of the cavity. In fact, recent advances in optical cavity design [43][44][45][46] realize effective volumes as low as 0.15 nm 3 [47] which corresponds to strong light-matter coupling strength above 0.1 a.u and enable the possibility of controlling the molecular orientation inside the cavity [48]. Throughout this work, we work in the strong light-matter coupling regime by considering a λ = 0.1 a.u.…”

Achieving control over chemical reaction's rate and stereoselectivity realizes one of the Holy Grails in chemistry that can revolutionize chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Strong light-matter interaction in optical or nanoplasmonic cavities might provide the knob to reach such control. In this work, we demonstrate the catalytic and selectivity control of an optical cavity for two selected Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions using the quantum electrodynamics coupled cluster (QED-CC) method. Herein, we find that by changing the molecular orientation with respect to the polarization of the cavity mode the reactions can be significantly inhibited or selectively enhanced to produce major endo or exo products on demand. This work highlights the potential of utilizing quantum vacuum fluctuations of an optical cavity to modulate the rate of Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions and to achieve stereoselectivity in a practical and non-intrusive way. We expect the present findings to be applicable to a larger set of relevant chemical reactions.

Landau Polaritons in a Full-Dielectric Three-Dimensional Photonic-Crystal Cavity

Abstract: We fabricated a full-dielectric three-dimensional photonic-crystal cavity containing an ultrahigh-mobility two-dimensional electron gas. By applying a strong perpendicular magnetic field, we created Landau polaritons originating from the ultrastrong coupling of electrons with cavity modes.
