Quantum Rabi oscillations of a qubit strongly coupled to a one-dimensional waveguide

We theoretically investigate quantum Rabi oscillations in a system consisting of a two-level atom (qubit) strongly coupled to a one-dimensional open waveguide. In contrast to conventional cavity quantum electrodynamics, the qubit interacts with a continuum of propagating modes, which gives rise to fundamentally different dynamical behavior. Within the rotating-wave approximation, we express the multimode Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian in terms of collective bosonic operators and show that the system possesses two integrals of motion, enabling an exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian in the single-excitation subspace. We show that for a strongly interacting qubit-photon system, the dynamics are captured by a reduced two-level model. In this framework, each level is defined as the product of the atomic excited state and a specific field mode, which takes the form of a multiphoton Fock-like state. In this picture, the Rabi oscillations represent a collective phenomenon corresponding to oscillations between multiphoton states differing by a single photon. We then extend our analysis to multiphoton processes in which the initial field is a coherent state with a continuous spectrum. In this case, the Rabi frequency is shown to be sensitive to the spectral profile of the function that generates the coherent state.

Quantum correlations of the photon fields in a waveguide quantum electrodynamics

We present a time-dependent quantum calculations of the first order and second order photon correlation functions for the scattering of a single-photon pulse on a two-level atom (qubit) embedded in a one-dimensional open waveguide. Within Markov approximation we find the analytic expression for the quantum operator of positive frequency electric field. We restricted Hilbert space of initial states by the states with one and two excitations and show that the photon probability amplitudes are given by the off-diagonal matrix elements of the electric field operator between these states. For two-excitation initial state where the atom is excited and there exists a single photon in a waveguide we calculate the second order correlation function which describes the measurements by two detectors at two different space-time points. The second order correlation function exhibits the interference term showing that the measurements of two detectors are correlated. This interference is similar to that found in the Hanbury Brown and Twiss correlation experiment with two indistinguishable photons.

Dynamical theory of single-photon transport through a qubit chain coupled to a one-dimensional nanophotonic waveguide

We study the dynamics of a single-photon pulse travelling through a linear qubit chain coupled to continuum modes in a one-dimensional (1D) photonic waveguide. We derive a time-dependent dynamical theory for qubit amplitudes and for transmitted and reflected spectra. We show that the requirement for the photon-qubit coupling to exist only for positive frequencies can significantly change the dynamics of the system. First, it leads to an additional photon-mediated dipole-dipole interaction between qubits which results in the violation of the phase coherence between them. Second, the spectral lines of transmitted and reflected spectra crucially depend on the shape of the incident pulse and the initial distance between the pulse center and the first qubit in the chain. We apply our theory to one-qubit and two-qubit systems. For these two cases, we obtain the explicit expressions for the qubits' amplitudes and the photon radiation spectra as time tends to infinity. For the incident Gaussian wave packet we calculate the line shapes of transmitted and reflected photons.

Single-photon scattering on a two-qubit system. Spatio-temporal structure of the scattered field

In this paper, we study the spatiotemporal distribution of the photon electric field produced by the scattering of a single photon narrow pulse from a system of two identical qubits coupled to continuum modes in a one-dimensional (1D) open waveguide. We derive the time-dependent dynamical equations for qubits' and photon amplitudes which allow the calculation of the photon backward and forward scattering fields in the whole space: before qubits, between qubits, and behind the qubits. The scattered field consists of several contributions that describe a free field of incoming photon, a spontaneous exponential decay of excited qubits, a slowly decaying part that dies out as the inverse powers of $t$, and a lossless part that represents a steady state solution as $t\rightarrow\infty$. For our system, we find the transmittance and reflectance fields as both time and distance from the qubits tend to infinity. We show that as the time after the event of scattering tends to infinity, the steady state photon the field is being formed in the whole one-dimensional space. If the distance $d$ between qubits is equal to the integer of the wavelength $λ$, the field energy exhibits temporal beatings between the qubit frequency $Ω$ and the photon frequency $ω_S$ with the period $T=2π/(ω_S-Ω)$.

Single-photon scattering on a qubit. Space-time structure of the scattered field

We study the space-time structure of the scattered field induced by the scattering of a narrow single-photon Gaussian pulse on a qubit embedded in 1D open waveguide. For a weak excitation power we obtain explicit analytical expressions for space and time dependence of reflected and transmitted fields which are, in general, are different from plain travelling waves. The scattered field consists of two parts: a damping part which represent a spontaneous decay of the excited qubit and a coherent, lossless part. We show that for large distance $x$ from qubit and at times $t$ long after the scattering event our theory provides the result which is well known from the stationary photon transport. However, the approach to the stationary limit is very slow. The scattered field decreases as the inverse powers of $x$ and $t$ as both the distance from the qubit and the time after the interaction increase.

Spontaneous decay of artificial atoms in a three-qubit system

We study the evolution of qubits amplitudes in a one-dimensional chain consisting of three equidistantly spaced noninteracting qubits embedded in an open waveguide. The study is performed in the frame of single-excitation subspace, where the only qubit in the chain is initially excited. We show that the dynamics of qubits amplitudes crucially depend on the value of $kd$, where $k$ is the wave vector, $d$ is a distance between neighbor qubits. If $kd$ is equal to an integer multiple of $π$, then the qubits are excited to a stationary level. In this case, it is the dark states which prevent qubits from decaying to zero even though they do not contribute to the output spectrum of photon emission. For other values of $kd$ the excitations of qubits exhibit the damping oscillations which represent the vacuum Rabi oscillations in a three-qubit system. In this case, the output spectrum of photon radiation is determined by a subradiant state which has the lowest decay rate. We also investigated the case with the frequency of a central qubit being different from that of the edge qubits. In this case, the qibits decay rates can be controlled by the frequency detuning between the central and the edge qubits.

Spontaneous decay of artificial atoms in a multi-qubit system

We consider a one-dimensional chain of N equidistantly spaced noninteracting qubits embedded in an open waveguide. In the frame of single-excitation subspace, we systematically study the evolution of qubits amplitudes if the only qubit in the chain was initially excited. We show that the temporal dynamics of qubits amplitudes crucially depend on the value of kd, where k is the wave vector, d is a distance between neighbor qubits. If kd is equal to an integer multiple of $π$, then the qubits are excited to a stationary level which scales as SN^{-1}S. We show that in this case, it is the dark states which prevent qubits from decaying to zero even though they do not contribute to the output spectrum of photon emission. For other values of kd the excitations of qubits have the form of damping oscillations, which represent the vacuum Rabi oscillations in a multi-qubit system. In this case, the output spectrum of photon radiation is defined by a subradiant state with the smallest width.

Waveguide bandgap N-qubit array with a tunable transparency resonance

We study a single photon transmission through 1D N- qubit chain. The qubits are supposed to be identical with equal distance between neighbors. We express the transfer matrix of N- qubit chain in terms of Chebyshev polynomials, which allows us to obtain simple expressions for the transmission and reflection amplitudes for arbitrarily large N. If the distance between neighbor qubits is equal to half wavelength, the transmission spectrum exhibits a flat bandgap structure with very steep walls. We show that for odd N the tuning of the excitation frequency of a central qubit gives rise to the appearance within a bandgap of a narrow resonance with a full transmission. The position of the resonance and its width can be controlled by the frequency of a central qubit. We show that the formation of the bandgap and of the transmission resonance is conditioned by the overlapping the widths of individual qubits which results from the strong coupling between qubits and waveguide photons.

Influence of Impurity on the Rate of Single Photon Superradiance in Disordered N Qubit Chain

We investigate the rate of superradiant emission for a number of artificial atoms (qubits) embedded in a one-dimensional open waveguide. More specifically, we study the 1D (N+1)- qubit chain where N qubits are identical in respect to their excitation frequency $Ω$ but have different rates of spontaneous emission $Γ_n$, and a single impurity qubit which is different from N qubits by its excitation frequency $Ω_P$ and rate of spontaneous emission $Γ_P$. This system is shown to have two hybridized collective states which accumulates the widths of all qubits. The energy spectrum of these states and corresponding probabilities are investigated as the function of the frequency detuning between the impurity and other qubits in a chain. It is shown that the inclusion of impurity qubit alter the resonance widths of the system only in a narrow range of the frequency detuning between qubits and impurity, where the resonance widths experience a significant repulsion. The photon transmission through disordered N- qubit chain with impurity qubit is also considered. It is shown that a single photon transport through this system is described by a simple expression which predicts for specific photon frequency the existence of a complete transmission peak and transparency window between frequencies $Ω$ and $Ω_P$.

Single photon superradiant decay of cyclotron resonance in a p-type single-crystal semiconductor film with a cubic structure

We study a single-photon super-radiance under the conditions of cyclotron resonance in a perfect single-crystal p-type semiconductor film with cubic structure. We show that the rate of super-radiant emission scales with tjhe film area. which allows one to specify the size of the film at which the probability of a single-photon super-radiance becomes much greater than the probabilities of other scattering channels. The power of super-radiant emission depends only on three fundamental constants: the electron charge q_{e}, the speed of light c, the electron mass m_{e}, and on the electric- to magnetic field ratio.
