Cavity frequency-dependent theory for vibrational polariton chemistry
Vibrational strong coupling controls the ground-state reactivity of molecules in optical cavities, but the underlying theory is still elusive. The authors analyze a molecular system coupled to a cavity mode and find that the reaction rate is suppressed for a particular cavity frequency, related to t...

| Résumé: | Vibrational strong coupling controls the ground-state reactivity of molecules in optical cavities, but the underlying theory is still elusive. The authors analyze a molecular system coupled to a cavity mode and find that the reaction rate is suppressed for a particular cavity frequency, related to the topology of the reaction barrier region, analogously to a solvent caging effect. |
