Abstract
We study the dissociation dynamics of a diatomic molecule, modeled as a Morse oscillator, coupled to an optical cavity. A marked suppression of the dissociation probability, both classical and quantum, is observed for cavity frequencies significantly below the fundamental transition frequency of the molecule. We show that the suppression in the probability is due to the nonlinearity of the dipole function. The effect can be rationalized entirely in terms of the structures in the classical phase space of the model system.
