A belated congrats to Alex Krotz for successfully defending his thesis last fall! Best of luck with continuing your academic journey at UC Berkeley!

The latest by Team member @mhhsieh.bsky.social. Combining the decoupled mean-field approach with a focusing of initial classical coordinates yields a quantum electrodynamical method with high accuracy across cavity lengths. @acs.org @iinanonu.bsky.social

Today we are releasing QC Lab – a Python package for quantum–classical dynamics simulations. And what would a software release be without a hype video?? Links to the package and documentation in thread below!

Team member Chientzu Lin shows how circularly-polarized nuclear vibrations in molecules can absorb and sustain angular-momentum-like states from optical fields. Just out in the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters @pubs.acs.org. @nuchemistry.bsky.social pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Thanks @isabelle-dume.bsky.social for this insightful account of our recent study on the chiroptical response of a chiral crystal!

Our paper has been selected as the cover of Journal of Chemical Physics!🎉 We showed that self-consistent mixed quantum-classical (MQC) dynamics can reproduce persistent yet anharmonic Rabi oscillations, providing a new perspective for MQC approach for quantum systems. doi.org/10.1063/5.02...

The latest by @mhhsieh.bsky.social was just selected to be on the cover of the Journal of Chemical Physics @aip.bsky.social! The paper can be found at doi.org/10.1063/5.02...

Our collaboration with the Poeppelmeier, Goldsmith, & Hersam groups shows the material LCSO to exhibit chiroptics, in spite of its centrosymmetry. Out today in @science.org. Featuring former Team member Andrew! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... @iinanonu.bsky.social @nuchemistry.bsky.social

Team member Ming-Hsiu Hsieh shows anharmonicities arising when coupling harmonic classical and quantum systems. This work just appeared in the Journal of Chemical Physics @aip.bsky.social, as part of the Emerging Investigators Special Collection. pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/arti...

Catch the Team at #ACSSpring2025 in San Diego! @acs.org @nuchemistry.bsky.social @trienensinst.bsky.social

We're thrilled to welcome Thomas W. Ebbesen from the University of Strasbourg, France. His seminar, “The Alchemy of Vacuum,” will explore how hybrid light-matter states can transform #chemistry & #material properties. More details here: planitpurple.northwestern.edu/event/626721 #quantumscience

We’re thrilled to welcome @jessegordon.bsky.social this fall as an Assistant Professor of Chemistry! 🎉 In this Q&A, Jesse shares his research goals and what excites him most about joining #NUChemistry. ➡️ bit.ly/jesse-gordon

We’re excited to host Thomas W. Ebbesen on March 20! The 2014 Kavli Prize laureate will present “The Alchemy of Vacuum”, exploring how hybrid #light-matter states can transform #chemistry & #material properties. 📅: March 20 | 📍: Pancoe Auditorium 🔗: planitpurple.northwestern.edu/event/626721

👏 Congrats Roel Tempelaar on being a 2025 #SloanFellow! The Sloan Research Fellowship is an honor that highlights the creativity, innovation and research accomplishments of early-career researchers. @sloanfoundation.bsky.social 🔗 bit.ly/433b8Ds

Just out! A joint effort with the Wasielewski group, showing how a change in exciton delocalization promotes intersystem crossing in donor–acceptor cocrystals. Featuring Team member extraordinaire Antonio! @trienensinst.bsky.social @nuchemistry.bsky.social pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/arti...
