Giant-atom-enabled quantum optics with valley-polarized photons

Marcel A. Pinto, Giovanni Luca Sferrazza, Silvia Casulleras +3

Valleytronics and valley photonics exploit the valley degree of freedom to encode and manipulate information. Here we show that photonic valleys can be selectively addressed in qua…

Superstrong Dynamics and Directional Emission of a Giant Atom in a Structured Bath

Vincent Jouanny, Léo Peyruchat, Marco Scigliuzzo +8

Quantum emitters coupled to waveguides with nonlinear dispersion show rich quantum dynamics with the promise of implementing non-trivial non-Markovian quantum models. Recent advanc…

Cavity modification of magnetoplasmon mode through coupling with intersubband polaritons

Lucy L. Hale, Daniele De Bernardis, Stephan Lempereur +12

We investigate the coupling of a multi-mode metal-insulator-metal cavity to a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in a quantum well in the presence of a strong magnetic field. The…

Chiral quantum optics in the bulk of photonic quantum Hall systems

Daniele De Bernardis, Francesco Piccioli, Peter Rabl +1

We study light-matter interactions in the bulk of a two-dimensional photonic lattice system, where photons are subject to the combined effect of a synthetic magnetic field and an o…

Optical-force-mediated coupling between levitated nanospheres can go ultrastrong

Daniele De Bernardis, Gianluca Rastelli, Iacopo Carusotto +1

We theoretically investigate the effect of optical-force-mediated interactions onto the quantum dynamics of a pair of dielectric nanospheres optically trapped in two neighboring op…

Thermodynamics of ultrastrongly coupled light-matter systems

Philipp Pilar, Daniele De Bernardis, Peter Rabl

We study the thermodynamic properties of a system of two-level dipoles that are coupled ultrastrongly to a single cavity mode. By using exact numerical and approximate analytical m…

Breakdown of gauge invariance in ultrastrong-coupling cavity QED

Daniele De Bernardis, Philipp Pilar, Tuomas Jaako +2

We revisit the derivation of Rabi- and Dicke-type models, which are commonly used for the study of quantum light-matter interactions in cavity and circuit QED. We demonstrate that…
