• Title: Engineering bound state in continuum via giant atom in photonic waveguide
• Authors: Xiaojun Zhang, Mingjie Zhu, Zhihai Wang,
• Abstract summary: 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.

• Abstract: The bound state in the continuum (BIC) in photonic system has been widely used in the field of lasing and sensing. We here find the controllable BIC in an artificial giant atom-dressed one-dimensional photonic waveguide. The giant atom couples to the waveguide via two distant sites. We find that the energy and the photonic distribution in the BIC can be controlled on demand by tuning the frequency and the size of the giant atom as well as its coupling phase with the waveguide. More interestingly, 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 (BOC). These findings provide an approach to manipulate the waveguide system via the bound states, and can be applied in the quantum information processing.

  We study the Markovian and Non-Markovian dynamics in a giant atom system which couples to a coupled resonator waveguide (CRW) via two distant sites. We find that the giant atom population can exhibit an oscillating behavior and the photon can be trapped in the giant atom regime. The predicted effects can be probed in state-of-the-art waveguide QED experiments and provide a striking example of how the different kinds of bound states modify the dynamics of quantum open system.
