- Abstract: In one-dimensional quantum emitter systems, the dynamics of atomic
excitations are influenced by the collective coupling between emitters through
photon-mediated dipole-dipole interactions. By introducing positional disorders
in a portion of the atomic array, we investigate the delocalization phenomena
at the interface between disordered zone and clean zone. The excitation is
initialized as symmetric Dicke states in the disordered zone, and several
measures are used to quantify the excitation localization. We first use
population imbalance and half-chain entropy to investigate the excitation
dynamics under time evolutions, and further investigate the crossover of
excitation localization to delocalization via the gap ratio from the
eigenspectrum in the reciprocal coupling case. In particular, we study the
participation ratio of the whole chain and the photon loss ratio between both
ends of the atomic chain, which can be used to quantify the delocalization
crossover in the non-reciprocal coupling cases. Furthermore, by increasing the
overall size or the ratio of the disordered zone under a fixed number of the
whole chain, we observe that excitation localization occurs at a smaller
disorder strength in the former case, while in the latter, a facilitation of
the delocalization appears when a significant ratio of clean zone to disordered
zone is applied. Our results can reveal the competition between the clean zone
and the disordered zone sizes on localization phenomenon, give insights to
non-equilibrium dynamics in the emitter-waveguide interface, and provide
potential applications in quantum information processing.

The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments.
The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.
