Collective Spin-Light and Light-Mediated Spin-Spin Interactions in an Optical Cavity

Zeyang Li, Boris Braverman, Simone Colombo +6

The interaction between an atomic ensemble and a light mode in a high-finesse optical cavity can easily reach the strong-coupling regime, where quantum effects dominate. In this re…
