Title: The resonance fluorescence cascade of a laser-excited two-level atom
Authors: Serge Reynaud
Abstract summary: The cascade of fluorescence photons by a two-level atom excited by coherent laser light is reviewed. The discussion emphasizes the random nature of resonance fluorescence and uses the distribution of delays between two successively emitted photons as the primary characterization of the process.

Abstract: The cascade of fluorescence photons by a two-level atom excited by coherent laser light is reviewed. The discussion emphasizes the random nature of resonance fluorescence and uses the distribution of delays between two successively emitted photons as the primary characterization of the process. Other characterizations such as photon counting and photon correlation are deduced.

We actively control the quantum phase between the transmitted and incoherently scattered two-photon component. We observe interference fringes in the normalized photon coincidence rate, varying from antibunching to bunching. Our results lend themselves to the development of novel quantum light sources.

Two-photon emission in detuned resonance fluorescence [0.0]
We discuss two-photon correlations from the side peaks that are formed when a two-level system emitter is driven coherently. We show that their combination leads to a neat picture compatible with perturbative two-photon scattering. This should help to control, enhance and open new regimes of multiphoton emission.

Observation of the Mollow Triplet from an optically confined single atom [0.0]
We characterize the fluorescence of a single optically trapped $87$Rb atom that is excited resonantly at different power levels. The asymmetry in correlations between photons from two sidebands of the fluorescence spectrum when the atom is exposed to an off-resonant field indicates that there is a preferred time-ordering of the emitted photons from different sidebands.

Two-photon resonance fluorescence of two interacting non-identical quantum emitters [77.34726150561087]
We study a system of two interacting, non-indentical quantum emitters driven by a coherent field. We show that the features imprinted by the two-photon dynamics into the spectrum of resonance fluorescence are particularly sensitive to changes in the distance between emitters. This can be exploited for applications such as superresolution imaging of point-like sources.

Entanglement dynamics in dissipative photonic Mott insulators [62.997667081978825]
In spite of particle losses the quantum entanglement propagation exhibits a ballistic character with propagation speeds related to the differerent quasiparticles that are involved in the dynamics. Our analysis reveals that photon dissipation has a strikingly asymmetric behavior in the two configurations with a much more dramatic role on the holon entanglement propagation than for the doublon case.
