Article Abstract
In applications such as plasmonic sensors and plasmonic nanolasers, constructing metal nanostructures with a wide range of tunability of plasmonic dephasing times is becoming increasingly important. However, the manipulation range of the dephasing time is still limited from only a few femtoseconds to tens of femtoseconds. Here, we propose what we believe to be a novel method to greatly extend the tunable range of plasmonic dephasing time by leveraging the strong coupling between the plasmonic gap mode and the surface lattice resonance mode. The results demonstrate a tunable range of plasmonic dephasing times from about 23 fs to 166 fs, which is more than one order magnitude longer than those for traditional modulation methods. Moreover, the local near-field intensity of the strong coupling modes can increase up to about 2-fold of the intrinsic gap mode. This investigation opens up new opportunities for applications requiring control plasmon dephasing times over a large range and provides an effective approach for better understanding light-matter interactions.

Tree tensor network hierarchical equations of motion based on time-dependent variational principle for efficient open quantum dynamics in structured thermal environments.

We introduce an efficient method, TTN-HEOM, for exactly calculating the open quantum dynamics for driven quantum systems interacting with highly structured bosonic baths by combining the tree tensor network (TTN) decomposition scheme with the bexcitonic generalization of the numerically exact hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM). The method yields a series of quantum master equations for all core tensors in the TTN that efficiently and accurately capture the open quantum dynamics for non-Markovian environments to all orders in the system-bath interaction. These master equations are constructed based on the time-dependent Dirac-Frenkel variational principle, which isolates the optimal dynamics for the core tensors given the TTN ansatz.

Organic luminescent diradicals have recently attracted more attention for their potential applications in quantum science. Here, we have investigated the spin dynamic properties of two solid-state Müller- and Chichibabin-type Kekulé diradicals featuring different distances between two radical centers. The continuous-wave EPR (cw-EPR) together with echo-detected field-swept spectrum (EDFS) prove the existence of a thermally accessible triplet state at room temperature, promising a potential candidate for quantum manipulation as a high-spin state.

Strong coupling between a single quantum emitter and a resonant plasmonic mode at room temperature is vital for quantum information processing and sensing. Beating dephasing in these systems by ultrafast energy transfer requires coupling single emitters to a plasmonic nanoresonator with ultrasmall mode volume and optimal spectral overlap. Typically, strong coupling is inferred from normal mode splittings in luminescence spectra, offering rough estimates of coupling strength.

We study the temporal, driven-dissipative dynamics of open photon Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) in a dye-filled microcavity, taking the condensate amplitude and the noncondensed fluctuations into account on the same footing by means of a cumulant expansion within the Lindblad formalism. The fluctuations fundamentally alter the dynamics in that the BEC always dephases to zero for a sufficiently long time. However, a ghost attractor, although outside of the physically accessible configuration space, attracts the dynamics and leads to a plateaulike stabilization of the BEC for an exponentially long time, consistent with experiments.

Many methods for the forward modeling of the blood-oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) effect have been created and analyzed to elucidate the mechanisms of BOLD functional MRI (fMRI) techniques and to expand on the potential of the transverse relaxation time (T*) in quantitative MRI. Simulations of this nature can be difficult to implement without prior experience, and differences made by methodological choices can be unclear, which provides a significant barrier of entry into the field. In this paper, we present BOLDsωimsuite, a toolbox for forward modeling of the BOLD effect, which collects many of the principal methods used in the literature into a single coherent package.
