Beyond Decoherence: Control the Collective Quantum Dynamics of Quasi Particles in Topological Interface
arXiv:2506.12805 · doi:10.1002/lpor.71152
Abstract
Long lived coherent quasiparticles are a promising foundation for novel quantum technologies, where maintaining quantum coherence is crucial. Decoherence, driven by finite emitter lifetimes, remains a central challenge in quantum computing. Here, we control the dynamics of spatially separated quantum emitters via preserving their phase information by introducing a topological waveguide as a robust chiral reservoir. Incoherent quantum emitters randomly positioned near a perturbed honeycomb plasmonic interface and couple to the mutual topological interface mode. Using the S3 Stokes parameter, we trace farfield polarization patterns that reflect emitter coherence and spin-momentum locking. We show that even weakly coupled emitters exhibit coherent excitation and imprint phase on the emission. Time domain dynamics reveal signatures of superradiance and subradiance that correlate with spatial interference in S3. These spatial temporal features confirm that the observed polarization patterns arise from coherent quantum manybody dynamics, not classical interference. This challenges the conventional dichotomy between incoherent and coherent regimes, revealing that topological chiral photonic environments mediate long-range quantum correlations beyond standard waveguide QED.
