• Abstract: Coherent long-range interactions between atoms are a prerequisite for numerous applications in the field of quantum information science, but they usually decrease exponentially with the increase in atomic separation. Here we present an appealing method to dramatically enhance the long-range atom-atom interaction mediated by a coupled-cavity array that is subjected to two-photon (parametric) drives. Our method allows one to greatly amplify both the localization length of the single-photon bound-state wavefunction and the effective atom-photon coupling strength, resulting in a significant improvement of photon-mediated coherent interaction between two distant atoms. Additionally, we illustrate this effect by analyzing how it facilitates the transfer of information and the creation of entanglement between the atoms.

  We present a systematic analysis of the cooperative effects arising in driven systems composed of multilevel atoms coupled via a common electromagnetic environment. The dependence of single and two-photon correlations are studied in detail for each region by varying atomic orientations. It is found that the anisotropy of the dipole-dipole interaction and its wave nature are essential to understand the behavior of the photons correlations.

• Directional spontaneous emission in photonic crystal slabs [49.1574468325115]
  Spontaneous emission is a fundamental out-of-equilibrium process in which an excited quantum emitter relaxes to the ground state due to quantum fluctuations. One way to modify these photon-mediated interactions is to alter the dipole radiation patterns of the emitter, e.g., by placing photonic crystals near them. Our study delves into the interaction between these directional emission patterns and the aforementioned variables, revealing the untapped potential to fine-tune collective quantum optical phenomena.

In the bandgap regime, where the giant-atom frequency lies outside the band, we study the generation and distribution of giant atom-photon bound states. In the band regime, the giant-atom frequency lies in the band, under the Born-Markov approximation, we obtained effective coherence and correlated dissipative interactions.

  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.
