Zeno Regime of Collective Emission: Non-Markovianity beyond Retardation

Yu-Xiang Zhang

To build up a collective emission, the atoms in an ensemble must coordinate their behavior by exchanging virtual photons. We study this non-Markovian process in a subwavelength ato…

Photonic Bound States and Scattering Resonances in Waveguide QED

Bastian Bakkensen, Yu-Xiang Zhang, Johannes Bjerlin +1

We study the emergence of two types of two-photon bounds states in waveguides of any chirality. Specifically, we present a systematic way of analytically determining the eigenstate…

Free-Fermion Multiply Excited Eigenstates and Their Experimental Signatures in 1D Arrays of Two-Level Atoms

Yu-Xiang Zhang, Klaus Mølmer

One-dimensional (1D) subwavelength atom arrays display multiply excited subradiant eigenstates which are reminiscent of free fermions. So far, these states have been associated wit…

Charge-Noise Insensitive Chiral Photonic Interface for Waveguide Circuit QED

Yu-Xiang Zhang, Carles R. i Carceller, Morten Kjaergaard +1

A chiral photonic interface is a quantum system that has different probabilities for emitting photons to the left and right. An on-chip compatible chiral interface is attractive fo…

Subradiant emission from regular atomic arrays: universal scaling of decay rates from the generalized Bloch theorem

Yu-Xiang Zhang, Klaus Mølmer

The Hermitian part of the dipole-dipole interaction in infinite periodic arrays of two-level atoms yields an energy band of singly excited states. In this Letter, we show that a di…

Theory of Subradiant States of a One-Dimensional Two-Level Atom Chain

Yu-Xiang Zhang, Klaus Mølmer

Recently, the subradiant states of one-dimensional two-level atom chains coupled to light modes were found to have decay rates obeying a universal scaling, and an unexpected fermio…

Surface plasmon launching by polariton superradiance

Yu-Xiang Zhang, Yuan Zhang, Klaus Mølmer

The condition of phase matching prohibits the transfer of excitation from free-space photons to surface plasmon polaritons (SPP). We propose and analyze a scheme that excites an en…
