About Chemical Modifications of Finite Dimensional QED Models

Suggestion of modifications of finite-dimensional quantum-electrodynamic (QED) models are proposed for interpreting chemical reactions in terms of artificial atoms and molecules on quantum dots placed in optical cavities. Moving both photons and atoms is possible between the cavities. Super dark states of diatomic systems are described, in which the motion of atoms between cavities is impossible due to quantum interference. Chemical processes with two level atoms and three level atoms with lambda spectrum are schematically modeled by solving the single quantum master equation with the Lindblad operators of photon leakage from the cavity and influx into it; association and dissociation reactions then differ only in the initial states. An example is given of the optical interpretation of the transition of an electron from atom to atom in terms of the multilevel Tavis-Cummings-Hubbard model with an estimate of the accuracy. Polyatomic chemical reactions are too complex for accurate modeling. Our method of rough interpretation helps to obtain their long-term results, for example, the form of stationary states of reagents, such as dark and super dark states.
