4 NovemberAbstract: This study demonstrates the experimentally observed double-branch vibrational quantum-assisted polaron condensation in an organic single-crystal-filled microcavity, emphasizing the importance of vibrational quantum relaxation in this process.
By modulating the thickness of the planar optical resonator, the energy of the two lower polaron branches is adjusted to match the energy of the two vibration modes, triggering condensation in the two branches with almost the same threshold. The results show that the effective energy relaxation of photogenic excitons to vibrational modes is conducive to the distribution of polarons in the ground state, paving the way for polychromatic polaron condensation and future laser display.

3 NovemberAbstract: This study develops a quantitative quantum model to analyze the scattering spectra of non-Hermitian systems, focusing on the coupling between near-field and far-field interactions, revealing complex spectral-hole-burning (SHB) patterns. The model quantitatively extracts the near-field coupling rate, non-radiative decay rate and radiative decay rate, and shows the interaction of these factors in the multimode system. By applying the model to the geometric engineering of silver dimers, the study established a dual-mode SHB library that provides general design guidelines for enhancing optical device performance through customized non-Hermitian scattering.
