Abstract

In this paper, we combined cavity optomechanics and quantum mechanical mechanism of van der Waals force to study the dynamic behavior of interacting bimolecules in the plasmonic localized field, and extend it to the interacting multi-molecular system. We explored how plasmonic optomechanical coupling affects the strength of intermolecular interactions. Based on our results, we propose to use optical field to modulate the intermolecular interaction potential in plasmonic cavity, which can be utilized in the enhancement of the efficiency of the molecular self-assembly process and controlling the yield of the reaction in an optical environment. This research extends molecular optomechanics from intramolecular interactions to intermolecular interactions and may has high application potential in some nanostructure synthesis.
