Quantum-mechanical effects at the macroscopic level were first explored in Josephson-
junction-based superconducting circuits in the 1980s. In recent decades, the emergence of …

Recent experiments have demonstrated that light and matter can mix together to an extreme
degree, and previously uncharted regimes of light-matter interactions are currently being …

In the past 20 years, impressive progress has been made both experimentally and
theoretically in superconducting quantum circuits, which provide a platform for manipulating …

Quantum mechanical interactions between electromagnetic radiation and matter underlie a
broad spectrum of optical phenomena. Strong light-matter interactions result in the well …

In this review we look at the concepts and state-of-the-art concerning the strong coupling of
surface plasmon-polariton modes to states associated with quantum emitters such as …

Mechanical objects have important practical applications in the fields of quantum information
and metrology as quantum memories or transducers for measuring and connecting different …

Using a well-controlled quantum system to simulate complex quantum matter is an idea that
has been around for 30 years and put into practice in systems of ultracold atoms for more …

Abstract In circuit quantum electrodynamics,,,,,,,,,(QED), where superconducting artificial
atoms are coupled to on-chip cavities, the exploration of fundamental quantum physics in …

A transition between energy levels at an avoided crossing is known as a Landau–Zener
transition. When a two-level system (TLS) is subject to periodic driving with sufficiently large …

Microcavities are semiconductor, metal, or dielectric structures providing optical confinement
in one, two or three dimensions. At the end of the 20th century, microcavities have attracted …
