• Title: Non-Markovian Collective Emission of Giant emitters in the Zeno Regime
• Authors: Qing-Yang Qiu, Xin-You Lü,
• Abstract summary: We explore the collective Zeno dynamics of giant artificial atoms that are coupled, via multiple coupling points, to a common photonic or acoustic reservoir. We reveal that giant atoms build up their collective emission smoothly from the decay rate of zero to that predicted by Markovian approximation. Our results might be probed in state-of-art waveguide QED experiments, and fundamentally broaden the fields of collective emission in systems with giant atoms.

• Abstract: We explore the collective Zeno dynamics of giant artificial atoms that are coupled, via multiple coupling points, to a common photonic or acoustic reservoir. In this regime, the establishment of atomic cooperativity and the revivification of exponential decay, are highly intertwined, which is utterly beyond the non-Markovian regime with only retarded backaction. We reveal that giant atoms build up their collective emission smoothly from the decay rate of zero to that predicted by Markovian approximation, and show great disparity between different waveguide QED setups. As a comparison, the step-like growth of instantaneous decay rates in the retardation-only picture has also been shown. All of these theoretical pictures predict the same collective behavior in the long time limit. From a phenomenological standpoint, we observe that the atomic superradiance exhabits significant directional property. In addition, the subradiant photons feature prolonged oscillation in the early stage of collective radiance, where the energy is exchanged remarkably between giant emitters and the field. Our results might be probed in state-of-art waveguide QED experiments, and fundamentally broaden the fields of collective emission in systems with giant atoms.

  We show how photon-mediated interactions give rise to a plaquette-ordered bond pattern in the atomic ground state. The pattern opens a non-trivial topological gap in 2D, resulting in a higher-order topological phase hosting corner states. Our work shows how atomic quantum simulators can be harnessed to investigate novel strongly-correlated topological phenomena.

  We study the non-Markovian process in a subwavelength atom chain coupled to a one-dimensional (1D) waveguide. By comparing a full quantum treatment with an approach incorporating only the retardation effect, we find that the field memory effect, characterized by the population of atomic excitation, is much more pronounced in collective emissions.

  We investigate the non-Markovian dynamics of two giant artificial atoms interacting with a continuum of bosonic modes in a 1D waveguide. For certain collective states, the decay rates are found to be far beyond that predicted in the the Dicke model and standard Markovian framework. The trapped photons/phonons in the BICs can also be re-released conveniently by changing the energy level splitting of giant atoms.

  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.
