- Abstract summary: We experimentally demonstrate strong coupling between a one-dimensional (1D) single-atom array and a high-finesse miniature cavity.
The atom array is obtained by loading single atoms into a 1D optical tweezer array with dimensions of 1$times$11.
By precisely controlling the position and spacing of the atom array in the high finesse Fabry--Perot cavity, all the atoms in the array are strongly coupled to the cavity simultaneously.

- Abstract: We experimentally demonstrate strong coupling between a one-dimensional (1D)
single-atom array and a high-finesse miniature cavity. The atom array is
obtained by loading single atoms into a 1D optical tweezer array with
dimensions of 1$\times$11. Therefore, a deterministic number of atoms is
obtained, and the atom number is determined by imaging the atom array on a CCD
camera in real time. By precisely controlling the position and spacing of the
atom array in the high finesse Fabry--Perot cavity, all the atoms in the array
are strongly coupled to the cavity simultaneously. The vacuum Rabi splitting
spectra are discriminated for deterministic atom numbers from 1 to 8, and the
$\sqrt{N}$ dependence of the collective enhancement of the coupling strength on
atom number $N$ is validated at the single-atom level.

We calculate the excitation spectrum of a single-electron atom localized near a dielectric nanostructure.
In particular, the strong resonance interaction between atom(s) and light, propagating through a photonic crystal waveguide, justifies as realistic the scenario of a signal light coupling with a small atomic array consisting of a few atoms.
As a potential implication, the directional one-dimensional resonance scattering, expected in such systems, could provide a quantum bus by entangling distant atoms integrated into a quantum register.

We propose a scheme for producing bursts of polarised single photons by coupling a generalised atomic emitter to an optical cavity.
In connection with two re-preparation methods, simulations predict 10-photon bursts coincidence count rates on the order of 1 kHz.
This paves the way for novel n-photon experiments with atom-cavity sources.

No class-B quantum density-matrix model is available to date, capable of accurately describing coherence and photon correlations within a unified theory.
Here we carry out a density-matrix theoretical approach for generic class-B lasers, and provide closed equations for the photonic and atomic reduced density matrix in the Fock basis of photons.
This model enables the study of few-photon bifurcations and non-classical photon correlations in class-B laser devices, also leveraging quantum descriptions of coherently coupled nanolaser arrays.

We consider an ensemble of Alkali atoms that are continuously optically pumped and probed.
Due to the collective scattering of photons at large optical depth, the steady state of atoms does not correspond to an uncorrelated tensor-product state.
We find and characterize regimes of Raman lasing, akin to the model of a superradiant laser.

We propose an explanation based upon strong-disorder renormalization group theory.
