Title: Manipulating molecules with strong coupling: harvesting triplet excitons in organic exciton microcavities

Abstract

Exciton-polaritons are quasiparticles with mixed photon and exciton character with the potential to modify chemical properties of materials. Here, they are used to provide dark, high-spin triplet-pair states a new pathway to emit light.
