• Abstract: Spectrally and spatially varying ensembles of emitters embedded into waveguides are ever-present in both well-established and emerging technologies. If control of collective excitations can be attained, a plethora of coherent quantum dynamics and applications may be realized on-chip in the scalable paradigm of waveguide quantum electrodynamics (WQED).Here, we investigate inhomogeneously broadened ensembles embedded with subwavelength spatial extent into waveguides employed as single effective and coherent emitters. We develop a method permitting the approximate analysis and simulation of such mesoscopic systems featuring many emitters, and show how collective resonances are observable within the waveguide transmission spectrum once their linewidth exceeds the inhomogeneous line. In particular, this allows for near-unity and tailorable non-Lorentzian extinction of waveguide photons overcoming large inhomogeneous broadening present in current state-of-the-art. As a particular illustration possible in such existing experiments, we consider the classic emulation of the cavity QED (CQED) paradigm here using ensembles of rare-earth ions as coherent mirrors and qubits and demonstrate the possibility of strong coupling given existing restrictions on inhomogeneous broadening and ensemble spatial extent. This work introduces coherent ensemble dynamics in the solid-state to WQED and extends the realm to spectrally tailorable emitters.

  We study theoretically an array of two-level qubits moving relative to a one-dimensional waveguide. When the frequency of this motion approaches twice the qubit resonance frequency, it induces parametric generation of photons and excitation of the qubits. We develop a comprehensive general theoretical framework that incorporates both perturbative diagrammatic techniques and a rigorous master-equation approach.

  Lightwave periodic driving of nearly dissipation-less currents has recently emerged as a universal control concept for superconducting (SC) and topological electronics applications. We report the discovery of lightwave-controlled superconductivity via parametric time-periodic driving of strongly-coupled bands in iron-based superconductors. We are able to measure non-perturbative, high-order correlations in this strongly-driven superconductivity by separating the THz multi-dimensional coherent spectra into conventional pump-probe, Higgs collective mode, and pronounced bi-Higgs frequency sideband peaks with highly nonlinear field dependence.

  We analyze the superfluid phases accessible to bosonic arrays subject to novel mechanisms. We show that, even in the presence of residual local loss, the system is stabilized into an exotic state with bosons condensed along the modes of a closed manifold. This gives access to a plethora of different patterns, ranging from periodic and quasi-periodic ones with spatial wavelength, to homogeneously-populated closed-Fourier-manifolds.

  We show that the simplest set-up of two qubits, harmonically trapped over an optical waveguide, enables the ultrastrong coupling regime of the quantum optomechanical interaction. The combination of the inherent open nature of the system and the strong optomechanical coupling leads to emerging parity-time (PT) symmetry. The $mathcalPT$ phase transition drives long-living subradiant states, observable in the state-of-the-art waveguide QED setups.
