• Abstract summary: Superstates can support ultranarrow lines in scattering spectra associated with quasi bound states in the continuum (quasi-BIC) These modes are of great interest for sensing applications as they enable compact systems with unprecedented sensitivity. Here, we unveil that a three-level quantum system can be tailored to support the quantum analog of an embedded superstate with an unboundedly narrow emission line.

• Abstract: Optical supercavity modes (superstates), i.e., hybrid modes emerging from the strong coupling of two nonorthogonal modes of an open cavity, can support ultranarrow lines in scattering spectra associated with quasi bound states in the continuum (quasi-BIC). These modes are of great interest for sensing applications as they enable compact systems with unprecedented sensitivity. However, these quasi-BIC sensors obey the shot-noise limit, which may be overcome only in quantum sensors. Here, we unveil that a three-level quantum system (e.g., atom, quantum dot, superconducting qubit) can be tailored to support the quantum analog of an embedded superstate with an unboundedly narrow emission line in the strong coupling regime. Remarkably, we demonstrate that the coupling of such a system with a cavity (e.g., plasmonic or dielectric nanoparticle, microcavity, microwave resonator) enables sensing properties with significantly reduced noise. Our results can be applied to a plethora of quantum platforms from microwave superconductors to cold atoms and quantum dots, opening interesting opportunities for quantum sensing and computing.

  We propose a new approach to realize the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian using low energy free-electrons coupled to dielectric microcavities. Our approach utilizes quantum recoil, which causes a large detuning that inhibits the emission of multiple consecutive photons. We show that this approach can be used for generation of single photons with unity efficiency and high fidelity.

  Microwave or radio-frequency driving poses a significant limitation for miniaturization, energy-efficiency and non-invasiveness of quantum sensors. We overcome this limitation by demonstrating a purely optical approach to coherent quantum sensing. Our results pave the way for highly compact quantum sensors to be employed for magnetometry or gyroscopy applications.

  Hybrid quantum systems in the ultrastrong, and even more in the deep-strong, coupling regimes can exhibit exotic physical phenomena. We experimentally observe the parity symmetry breaking of an ancillary Xmon artificial atom induced by the field of a lumped-element superconducting resonator. This result opens a way to experimentally explore the novel quantum-vacuum effects emerging in the deep-strong coupling regime.

• Many-body cavity quantum electrodynamics with driven inhomogeneous emitters [2.745127037087037]
  We study how a large, inhomogeneously broadened ensemble of solid-state emitters coupled with high cooperativity to a nanophotonic resonator behaves under strong excitation. We discover a sharp, collectively induced transparency (CIT) in the cavity reflection spectrum, resulting from quantum interference and collective response induced by the interplay between driven inhomogeneous emitters and cavity photons. These phenomena in the many-body cQED regime enable new mechanisms for achieving slow light and frequency referencing, pave a way towards solid-state superradiant lasers and inform the development of ensemble-based quantum interconnects.

  A mechanical quantum bit could provide an important new platform for quantum computation and sensing. We show that by coupling one of the flexural modes of a suspended carbon nanotube to the charge states of a double quantum dot defined in the nanotube, it is possible to induce sufficient anharmonicity. Remarkably, the dephasing due to the quantum dot is expected to be reduced by several orders of magnitude in the coupled system.
