Förster excitation energy and charge transfer are fundamental processes of chemical reactions and connected to interesting quantities such as correlation. Often this correlation is taken as fixed property of the system.
In the current work, we present how the coupling to cavity photons in a minimal realistic molecular system can drastically alter transfer characteristics, e.g. renders the excitation transfer to be distance independent [1,2]. The photonic interaction can imprint fermionic correlation on arbitrary distances.
The exact real-space description is suited to describe transfer and correlation in a unprejudiced ab-initio picture and allows us to extend our insights beyond common quantum-optical approximations.
