- Abstract: Photovoltaic effect of neutral atoms using inhomogeneous light in double-trap
opened system is studied theoretically. Using asymmetric external driving field
to replacing original asymmetric chemical potential of atoms, we create
polarization of atom population in the double-trap system. The polarization of
atom number distribution induces net current of atoms and works as collected
carriers in the cell. The cell can work even under partially coherent light.
The whole configuration is described by quantum master equation considering
weak tunneling between the system and its reservoirs at finite temperature. The
model of neutral atoms could be extended to more general quantum particles in
principle.

We identify a controllable and scalable catalyst that allows metrologically useful entangled states to be generated at a high rate.
The time scale of entanglement formation can be much shorter than for bare atom-atom interactions, effectively eliminating the decoherence due to photon losses.
Our protocol may find applications in future quantum sensors or other systems where controllable and scalable many-body entanglement is desired.

We show that when a single atom tunneling in a double well is coupled to an optical ring cavity, the interference phenomena arise.
Being driven by an external laser in the dispersive regime, the field emitted by the atom into the cavity exhibits an interference pattern.

We consider the cooperative spontaneous emission of a system of two identical atoms, interacting with the electromagnetic field in the vacuum state.
Using time-dependent theory, we investigate the spectrum of the radiation emitted by the two-atom system.
We show that it is modulated in time, and that the presence of the oscillating mirror can enhance or inhibit the decay rate.

We propose an analog simulator for discrete 2D quantum chemistry models based on cold atoms in optical lattices.
We first analyze how to simulate simple models, like the discrete versions of H and H$+$, using a single fermionic atom.
We then show that a single bosonic atom can mediate an effective Coulomb repulsion between two fermions, leading to the analog of molecular Hydrogen in two dimensions.

The strongly coupled atom-cavity system can be described by non-reciprocal quasiparticles, i.e., the cavity polariton.
