Table 1. Timescales relevant for the description of organic (J-aggregate) microcavity relaxation dynamics at room temperature ^a .

Process	Initial state(s)	Final state(s)	Timescale	Ref.
Rabi oscillations	—	—	15–50 fs (80–300 meV)	93
Cavity leakage	Cavity photon	—	35–100 fs	94–96
	UP	Dark states	∼ 50 fs	11
Vibrational relaxation	Dark states	LP	∼ 10 fs	99
	UP	—	∼ 100 fs	95
Photoluminescence	LP	—	∼ 1 fs	100
	Bare exciton	—	∼ 1–10 ps	27, 94, 100 and 101

^aIn typical organic dyes, vibrational relaxation following electronic excitation occurs on the order of 10–1000 fs.97,98
