- Abstract: We investigate the charging of a harmonic-oscillator quantum battery by a propagating two-photon quantum pulse coupled through a two-level-system charger. Excitation-number conservation reduces the dynamics to a sequential response of the first and second excitation sectors, whose effective non-Hermitian generators exhibit two exceptional points separating overdamped, mixed, and underdamped regimes. We derive the exact full-charging amplitude and the response-matched two-photon temporal mode that achieves perfect charging in the ideal resonant single-channel model. For experimentally accessible Gaussian pulses, moderate temporal anticorrelation or a finite photon delay can enhance charging, whereas positive correlations generally suppress it. States with equal Schmidt number can nevertheless show different charging efficiencies, demonstrating that temporal-mode structure and response matching, rather than nonseparability alone, determine charging performance.

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 investigate a Dicke quantum battery in the dispersive regime, where the photons trapped into a resonant cavity are way more energetic with respect to the two-level systems embedded into it.
