• Abstract: We investigate the spectral properties and quantum criticality of the two-photon Rabi-Stark model. Using the exact solution of this model, we rigorously derive a condition for complete spectral collapse, where all bound states vanish. In this case, the energy gap closes at a critical coupling, signaling a continuous quantum phase transition. The corresponding gap exponent differs from those in both the one-photon Rabi-Stark model and the quantum Rabi model, suggesting a distinct universality class. While in the general case, an infinite number of discrete bound states exist when spectral collapse occur and the energy gap remains open. By mapping to an inverse square potential well, these bound levels approach the threshold energy exponentially. Our results offer new insights into novel spectral phenomena in nonlinear quantum Rabi models, with potential implications for experimental realizations in circuit QED and trapped ion systems.

  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.

  We propose a scheme that generates multi-photon bundles via virtual excitations in a quantum Rabi model. We show that the driving pulses induce deterministic emission of multiple photons from the eigenstates of the quantum Rabi model. We calculate the generalized second-order correlation functions of the output photons, which reveal that the emitted photons form antibunched multi-photon bundles.

  We consider an ensemble of Alkali atoms that are continuously optically pumped and probed.

We find and characterize regimes of Raman lasing, akin to the model of a superradiant laser.

For asymmetric Rabi model, the external bias field which breaks the parity symmetry of total excitation number tends to cluster the upper and lower branches into two bundles.
