- Abstract: We investigate the single photon scattering and bound states in a coupled resonator waveguide (CRW) which couples to a topological giant atom (TGA) via two distant sites. Here, the TGA is constructed by a one dimensional Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) chain with finite length. By modulating the topological phase of the TGA, the incident photon in the CRW can be completely reflected or transmitted, and is therefore beneficial to design the coherent photonic device. Meanwhile, we also achieve two pairs of bound states locating respectively above and blow the continuum. Whether the gap is open or closed depends on the boundary condition of the TGA. Therefore, the combination of the topology and the interference provides us an exciting opportunity to manipulate the photonic state in the context of waveguide quantum electrodynamics.

We find the controllable BIC in an artificial giant atom-dressed one-dimensional photonic waveguide.
We predict the quantum beats in the atomic and photonic dynamical evolution, which is induced by the oscillation between the BIC and bound state outside the continuum.
These findings provide an approach to manipulate the waveguide system via the bound states, and can be applied in the quantum information processing.

Two non-identical quantum emitters, when placed within a cavity and coherently excited at the two-photon resonance, can reach stationary states of nearly maximal entanglement.
We show that this mechanism is merely one among a complex family of phenomena that can generate both stationary and metastable entanglement when driving the emitters at the two-photon resonance.
