We study a system made up of one or two two-level quantum emitters, coupled to a single transverse mode of a closed waveguide, in which photon wavenumbers and frequencies are discretized, and characterize the stable states in which one excitation is steadily shared between the field and the emitters. We unearth finite-size effects in the field-emitter interactions and identify a family of dressed states, that represent the forerunners of bound states in the continuum in the limit of an infinite waveguide. We finally consider the potential interest of such states for applications in the field of quantum information.

Hybrid molecular-plasmonic nanostructures have demonstrated their potential for surface enhanced spectroscopies, sensing or quantum control at the nanoscale. In this work, we investigate the strong coupling regime and explicitly describe the hybridization between the localized plasmons of a metal nanoparticle and the excited state of a quantum emitter, offering a simple and precise understanding of the energy exchange in full analogy with cavity quantum electrodynamics treatment and dressed atom picture. Both near field emission and far field radiation are discussed, revealing the richness of such optical nanosources.
The interaction between the quantum emitter and topological photonic system makes the photon behave in exotic ways. We here study the properties of a giant atom coupled to two sites of a one-dimensional topological waveguide, which is described by the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) chain. We find that the giant atom can act as an effective boundary and induce the chiral zero modes, which are similar to those in the SSH model with open boundary, for the waveguide under the periodical boundary. Except for the boundary effect, we also find that the giant atom can lift energy degeneracy inside the energy bands of the SSH chain and adjust spatial symmetry of the photon distributions for the states of the dressed giant atom and waveguide. That is, the giant atom can be used to change the properties of the topological environment. Our work may stimulate more studies on the interaction between matter and topological environment.
The single-photon scattering in a rectangular waveguide by a V-type three-level emitter is studied for large range of input-photon energy beyond the single-mode region. By using Lippmann-Schwinger formalism, the necessary and sufficient conditions of complete transmission and complete reflection are derived analytically. In the single-mode region, the complete transmission caused by electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and the complete reflection due to Fano resonance can both be achieved by adjusting the emitters parameters. But in the multi-mode region, except that the input-state is prepared in a coherent superposition state, the perfect reflection is absent, and the photon inevitably enters other propagation modes due to the indirectly interaction between waveguide modes mediated by the emitter. Other remarkable features in the photon transport induced by the finite cross section includes the blueshift of the reflection resonance and the cutoff-frequency effect.
Light states composed of multiple entangled photons - such as cluster states - are essential for developing and scaling-up quantum computing networks. Photonic cluster states with discrete variables can be obtained from single-photon sources and entangling gates, but so far this has only been done with probabilistic sources constrained to intrinsically-low efficiencies, and an increasing hardware overhead. Here, we report the resource-efficient generation of polarization-encoded, individually-addressable, photons in linear cluster states occupying a single spatial mode. We employ a single entangling-gate in a fiber loop configuration to sequentially entangle an ever-growing stream of photons originating from the currently most efficient single-photon source technology - a semiconductor quantum dot. With this apparatus, we demonstrate the generation of linear cluster states up to four photons in a single-mode fiber. The reported architecture can be programmed to generate linear-cluster states of any number of photons with record scaling ratios, potentially enabling practical implementation of photonic quantum computing schemes.
In the waveguide quantum electrodynamics (QED) system, emitter separation plays an important role for its functionality. Here, we present a method to measure the deep-subwavelength emitter separation in a waveguide-QED system. In this method, we can also determine the number of emitters within one diffraction-limited spot. In addition, we also show that ultrasmall emitter separation change can be detected in this system which may then be used as a waveguide-QED-based sensor to measure tiny local temperature/strain variation.
