Theory of subradiant states of a one-dimensional two-level atom chain

YX Zhang, K Mølmer - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
Recently, the subradiant states of one-dimensional two-level atom chains coupled to light
modes were found to have decay rates obeying a universal scaling, and an unexpected …

Dicke superradiance in ordered lattices: dimensionality matters

E Sierra, SJ Masson, A Asenjo-Garcia - Physical Review Research, 2022 - APS
Dicke superradiance in ordered atomic arrays is a phenomenon where atomic
synchronization gives rise to a burst in photon emission. This superradiant burst only occurs …

Subradiant states of quantum bits coupled to a one-dimensional waveguide

A Albrecht, L Henriet, A Asenjo-Garcia… - New Journal of …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
