Strong-Coupling for Optimal Plasmon-Catalysis

Objective

SCOPC (Strong-Coupling for Optimal Plasmon-Catalysis) will provide a theoretical methodology and detailed investigation to improve photo-chemical plasmonic catalysis and extend it with a non-intrusive control-strategy. I will efficiently embed realistic external electromagnetic environments into first-principles density-functional theory calculations. Shaping this electromagnetic environment into the form of a resonator, the resonator, plasmonic particle and molecule constitute multi-component cavities which provide non-intrusive control over the plasmon-molecule dynamics by means of the size and quality of the external resonator. SCOPC paves a way to control photo-absorption cross-section and catalytic features on-the-flight without the need to change structure or composition of the nanoparticles. In addition, I will resolve current limitations of first-principles QED. Especially the limitation to treat only very few molecules strongly coupled to a photonic environment stands in clear conflict with experimental reality, a problem that will be resolved with the help of subsystem density-functional theory. I will provide a detailed study from first-principles on the impact of strong light-matter coupling on plasmonic catalysis and energy-transfer in general. SCOPC adds a new facet to plasmonic catalysis and delivers vital extensions to first-principles QED.

Keywords

Project’s keywords as indicated by the project coordinator. Not to be confused with the EuroSciVoc taxonomy (Fields of science)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

HORIZON-TMA-MSCA-PF-EF - HORIZON TMA MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships - European Fellowships

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
