- Abstract: Plasmonic nanocavities enable the synchronization of spatially distant emissive dipoles through strong near-field coupling in sub-nm gaps. We report formation of a room-temperature synchronized dipole state in locally-ordered plasmonic nanogap 2D arrays under non-resonant continuous-wave pumping. Unlike lasers, photonic Bose-Einstein condensates, or exciton-polariton condensates, this system exhibits spatial coherence across the dipoles, while rapid radiative and non-radiative emission suppresses temporal photon coherence. A change of behaviour is observed with increasing pumping, marked by the spatial spread of g(1) coherence, but without spectral narrowing or directional emission. This driven-dissipative system exhibits fast temporal coherence decay and complex spatial correlations, offering a new platform for studying synchronization at room temperature. Combining ultralow mode volumes, high Purcell enhancement, and scalable ambient operation, it opens pathways for novel photonic and quantum technologies.

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 focus here on the spatial heterogeneity of the motion of charge density wave (CDW) at nanoscale in the archetypal case of La$_2-x$Sr$_x$NiO$_4+y$ perovskite at low temperature.
