Congratulations to Frank Huo and @HuoGroup
for publishing their new theory on how quantum effects influence chemical reactions
It's the culmination of 5 years of work on a quantum jigsaw puzzle that has long baffled scientists!

Yijing was my faculty mentor at @hkust -a brilliant mind in open system quantum dynamics and one of the most rigorous theoretical chemists I’ve ever met! Grateful to @JChemPhys for this special issue in his honor-proud to be a guest editor. Please consider submitting your work!

Excited to share the first publication from the Son group! We discuss how ultrafast spectroscopy can help unravel the exciting photophysics that take place in exciton-polaritons. @chemphysrev @BUChemistry pubs.aip.org/aip/cpr/article…

The second paper in our group published in JCP! Here, we explored a novel mechanism for polariton linewidth broadening in Fabry-Pérot cavities: symmetry breaking of density distribution along the cavity mirror plane. Can we observe it experimentally?doi.org/10.1063/5.0209212

Since last year I've had the privilege of serving on the Early-Career Advisory Board of @ACSChemRev to help promote cross-cutting science. In that capacity, I wrote this highlight on a recent review of Topological Metamaterials by Andrea Alú & coworkers:

First paper in our lab is published in JCTC: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…. We efficiently simulate vibrational strong coupling for realistic molecules in Fabry-Perot cavities. A leap forward for simulating realistic experimental conditions! @JCIM_JCTC

@ChemPhysRev now has an impact factor. We debuted at 6.1. Not bad considering we launched the journal in 2020 during a global pandemic. Thanks to everyone on the Editorial team, past and present!

Gotta give a shout out to @jillianldempsey and @TheOdomGroup for showing how to control strong light-matter coupling with just a simple electrochemical voltage knob. Thanks to @NSF for the support through the Phase I CCI QuEST to make this possible! 👇
