• oscillations of the transport current in time still reveal Rabi oscillations, but in a complex many-level system other oscillations can be present. In particular we find that for a weak Rabi splitting the even weaker Zeeman spin splitting caused by a small external magnetic field plays a role in the transport

• states and the anticrossings indicates a Rabi splitting that is a bit larger for the x-polarized cavity field as the geometry of the system makes the charge densities of the states a bit more polarizable in that direction. As was mentioned earlier, both Rabi splittings are small and not much larger than

• -component of the total spin in the upper panel of Figure 4. The mean photon number shows oscillations, a faster one that corresponds to the small Rabi splitting energy visible in the left panel of Figure 3, and a slower oscillation that is also present in This slower oscillations correlates with the

• resonance and the excited state of photochromic molecules. By varying the width and the length of the nanorods independently, a clear Rabi splitting appears in the dispersion curves of both resonators. Keywords: active plasmonics; photochromic molecules; plasmon; Rabi splitting; strong coupling

• ] allowed us to identify this behavior as a strong coupling regime, where the coincidence of the MC absorption band with the plasmonic regime leads to the formation of two distinct peaks and a so-called Rabi splitting [19]. The strong coupling regime is usually observed on high quality resonators as atoms

• gives a FWHM of 75 nm, corresponding to 300 meV. Moreover, the FWHM of the MC absorption (Figure 1c) is measured at about 130 nm, corresponding to 500 meV. The Rabi splitting, originating in the cross between the dispersion curves of the two resonant modes, is usually observable if its energy is larger
