UnMySt Unraveling the Mysteries of Vibrational Strong Coupling

Coordinator: TEL AVIV UNIVERSITY (IL)

Polaritonic Chemistry is a new and exciting field that has emerged from the fusion of chemistry and cavity quantum electrodynamics. In this innovative realm, and specifically under Vibrational Strong Coupling (VSC), hybridizing molecular vibrations with electromagnetic cavity modes has been shown to modify the rate and yield of reactions, solvent polarity and other molecular properties, in the absence of any illumination. The prospects for VSC as a versatile tool for chemistry and materials science have sparked a worldwide surge of interest, leading to substantial advances in recent years. Ne…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

EU contribution: €10.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 6 years from 2025-04-01 to 2031-03-31.
