Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics

Physics Today, 1989
Ever since Einstein demonstrated that spontaneous emission must occur if matter and radiation are to achieve thermal equilibrium, physicists have generally believed that excited atoms inevitably radiate. Spontaneous emission is so fundamental that it is usually regarded as an inherent property of matter.

Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics: Coherence in Context

Science, 2002
Modern cavity quantum electrodynamics (cavity QED) illuminates the most fundamental aspects of coherence and decoherence in quantum mechanics. Experiments on atoms in cavities can be described by elementary models but reveal intriguing subtleties of the interplay of coherent dynamics with external couplings.

Cavity Quantum Electrodynamical Metamaterials

Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics, 2020
We introduce the concept of designing new optical materials from “meta-atoms” comprised of matter ultra-strongly-coupled to an optical cavity. Such “strongly-coupled” materials can have surprising properties, such as metallic behavior at low frequencies.

CAVITY QUANTUM ELECTRODYNAMICS AT OPTICAL FREQUENCIES

Optics and Photonics News, 1992
Quantum electrodynamics (QED) tells us that the electromagnetic field is, on a mode-by-mode basis, quantized according to the harmonic oscillator model. Each mode is ascribed a lowest energy (or dark) state possessing one half quanta of non-removable energy plus an infinite ladder of equally spaced excited states accessed through the addition or ...

Cavity-quantum electrodynamics with quantum dots

Journal of Optics B: Quantum and Semiclassical Optics, 2003
Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have emerged as promising candidates for studying quantum optical phenomena. In particular, cavity-quantum electrodynamics effects can be investigated using a single QD embedded inside a photonic nanostructure, where both the carriers and photons are confined within sub-micron length scales in all three dimensions ...

Cavity quantum electrodynamics with single atoms

Frontiers in Optics, 2003
Experiments with single atoms got routine. In this lecture two groups of those experiments will be reviewed with special emphasis on applications to study quantum phenomena in the atom-radiation interaction. The first one deals with the one-atom maser and the second one with another cavity quantum electrodynamic device on the basis of trapped ions. The

Quantum electrodynamics in an optical cavity

2007
Observations of a vacuum-field induced normal-mode splitting, photon antibunching, sub-Poissonian photon statistics and optical bistability are reported for a small number of Cesium atoms strongly coupled to a single mode optical cavity.

Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics with Quantum Dots

Frontiers in Optics 2010/Laser Science XXVI, 2010
Cavity quantum electrodynamics effects in semiconductor quantum dots coupled to photonic crystals nanocavities are presented. In this framework, the single photon nonlinear regime is explored for implementation of strongly correlated quantum-optical systems.
