Engineering cavity singlet fission in rubrene

By employing the numerically exact multiple Davydov D2 ansatz, we study cavity-manipulated singlet fission that is mediated by polaritonic conical intersections for both one- and two-molecule systems. The population evolution of the TT state and the cavity photons is carefully examined in search for...

The population evolution of the TT state and the cavity photons is carefully examined in search for a high fission efficiency via cavity engineering. Several interesting mechanisms have been uncovered, such as photon-assisted singlet fission, system localization via a displaced photon state, and collective enhancement of the fission efficiency for the two-molecule system. It is also found that the system localization process in the two-molecule system differs substantially from that in the one-molecule system because of the appearance of a novel central polaritonic conical intersection in the two-molecule system.
