We theoretically analyse the hybrid Mie-exciton optical modes arising from the strong coupling of excitons in organic dyes or transition-metal dichalcogenides with the Mie resonances of high-index dielectric nanoparticles. Detailed analytic calculations show that silicon--exciton core--shell nanoparticles are characterised by a richness of optical modes which can be tuned through nanoparticle dimensions to produce large anticrossings in the visible or near infrared, comparable to those obtained in plexcitonics. The complex magnetic-excitonic nature of these modes is understood through spectral decomposition into Mie-coefficient contributions, complemented by electric and magnetic near-field profiles. In the frequency range of interest, absorptive losses in silicon are sufficiently low to allow observation of several periods of Rabi oscillations in strongly coupled emitter-particle architectures, as confirmed here by discontinuous Galerkin time-domain calculations for the electromagnetic field beat patterns. These results suggest that Mie resonances in high-index dielectrics are promising alternatives for plasmons in strong-coupling applications in nanophotonics, while the coupling of magnetic and electric modes opens intriguing possibilities for external control.

We study the interplay between disorder and topology for the localized edge states of light in topological zigzag arrays of resonant dielectric nanoparticles. We characterize topological properties by the winding number that depends on both zigzag an
gle and spacing between nanoparticles in the array. For equal-spacing arrays, the system may have two values of the winding number $ u=0$ or $1$, and it demonstrates localization at the edges even in the presence of disorder, being consistent with experimental observations for finite-length nanodisk structures. For staggered-spacing arrays, the system possesses richer topological phases characterized by the winding numbers $ u=0$, $1$ or $2$, which depend on the averaged zigzag angle and disorder strength. In a sharp contrast to the equal-spacing zigzag arrays, staggered-spacing arrays reveal two types of topological phase transitions induced by the angle disorder, (i) $ u = 0 leftrightarrow u = 1$ and (ii) $ u = 1 leftrightarrow u = 2$. More importantly, the spectrum of staggered-spacing arrays may remain gapped even in the case of a strong disorder.
We reveal stacking-induced strong coupling between atomic motion and interlayer excitons through photocurrent measurements of WSe$_2$/MoSe$_2$ heterojunction photodiodes. Strong coupling manifests as pronounced periodic sidebands in the photocurrent
spectrum in frequency windows close to the interlayer exciton resonances. The sidebands, which repeat over large swathes of the interlayer exciton photocurrent spectrum, occur in energy increments corresponding directly to a prominent vibrational mode of the heterojunction. Such periodic patterns, together with interlayer photoconductance oscillations, vividly demonstrate the emergence of extraordinarily strong exciton-phonon coupling - and its impact on interlayer excitations - in stack-engineered van der Waals heterostructure devices. Our results establish photocurrent spectroscopy as a powerful tool for interrogating vibrational coupling to interlayer excitons and suggest an emerging strategy to control vibronic physics in the solid-state.
We examine the far-field optical response, under-plane wave excitation in the presence of a static magnetic field, of core-shell nanoparticles involving a gyroelectric component, either as the inner or the outer layer, through analytic calculations b
ased on appropriately extended Mie theory. We focus on absorption and scattering of light by bismuth-substituted yttrium iron garnet (Bi:YIG) nanospheres and nanoshells, combined with excitonic materials such as organic-molecule aggregates or two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides, and discuss the hybrid character of the modes emerging from the coupling of the two constituents. We observe the excitation of strong magneto-optic phenomena and explore, in particular, the response and tunability of a magneto-transverse light current, indicative of the photonic Hall effect. We show how interaction between the Bi:YIG and excitonic layers leads to a pair of narrow bands of highly directional scattering, emerging from the aforementioned hybridization, which can be tuned at will by adjusting the geometrical or optical parameters of the system. Our theoretical study introduces optically anisotropic media as promising templates for strong coupling in nanophotonics, offering a means to combine tunable magnetic and optical properties, with potential implications both in the design of all-dielectric photonic devices but also in novel clinical applications.
Strong light-matter interactions in both the single-emitter and collective strong coupling regimes attract significant attention due to emerging quantum and nonlinear optics applications, as well as opportunities for modifying material-related proper
ties. Further exploration of these phenomena requires an appropriate theoretical methodology, which is demanding since polaritons are at the intersection between quantum optics, solid state physics and quantum chemistry. Fortunately, however, nanoscale polaritons can be realized in small plasmon-molecule systems, which in principle allows treating them using ab initio methods, although this has not been demonstrated to date. Here, we show that time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) calculations can access the physics of nanoscale plasmon-molecule hybrids and predict vacuum Rabi splitting in a system comprising a few-hundred-atom aluminum nanoparticle interacting with one or several benzene molecules. We show that the cavity quantum electrodynamics approach holds down to resonators on the order of a few cubic nanometers, yielding a single-molecule coupling strength exceeding 200 meV due to a massive vacuum field value of 4.5 V/nm. In a broader perspective, our approach enables parameter-free in-depth studies of polaritonic systems, including ground state, chemical and thermodynamic modifications of the molecules in the strong-coupling regime, which may find important use in emerging applications such as cavity enhanced catalysis.
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites have emerged as very promising materials for photonic applications, thanks to the great synthetic versatility that allows to tune their optical properties. In the two-dimensional (2D) crystalline form, these mater
ials behave as multiple quantum-well heterostructures with stable excitonic resonances up to room temperature. In this work strong light-matter coupling in 2D perovskite single-crystal flakes is observed, and the polarization-dependent exciton-polariton response is used to disclose new excitonic features. For the first time, an out-of-plane component of the excitons is observed, unexpected for such 2D systems and completely absent in other layered materials, such as transition-metal dichalcogenides. By comparing different hybrid perovskites with the same inorganic layer but different organic interlayers, it is shown how the nature of the organic ligands controllably affects the out-of-plane exciton-photon coupling. Such vertical dipole coupling is particularly sought in those systems, e.g. plasmonic nanocavities, in which the direction of the field is usually orthogonal to the material sheet. Organic interlayers are shown to affect also the strong birefringence associated to the layered structure, which is exploited in this work to completely rotate the linear polarization degree in only few microns of propagation, akin to what happens in metamaterials.
