Superradiance paradox in waveguide lattices

论文摘要
Recently, it has been suggested that the collective radiative decay of two point-like quantum emitters coupled to a waveguide, separated by a distance comparable to the coherence length of a spontaneously emitted photon, leads to an apparent $^{\prime}$superradiance paradox$^{\prime}$ by which one cannot decide whether independent or collective emission occurs.悖论的分辨率源于由延迟的场介导的原子相互作用引起的强大非马克维亚动力学。在这里,我们建议一个基于波导晶格中的光子逃逸动力学,以模拟超级悖论的集成光学平台。值得注意的是,马尔可夫衰减动力学和独立的光子发射可以通过对系统的频繁(Zeno样)观察来恢复。
Recently, it has been suggested that the collective radiative decay of two point-like quantum emitters coupled to a waveguide, separated by a distance comparable to the coherence length of a spontaneously emitted photon, leads to an apparent $^{\prime}$superradiance paradox$^{\prime}$ by which one cannot decide whether independent or collective emission occurs. The resolution of the paradox stems from the strong non-Markovian dynamics arising from the delayed field-mediated atom interaction. Here we suggest an integrated optics platform to emulate the superradiance paradox, based on photon escape dynamics in waveguide lattices. Remarkably, Markovian decay dynamics and independent photon emission can be restored by frequent (Zeno-like) observation of the system.
