We theoretically explore the driven-dissipative physics of geometrically frustrated lattices of cavity resonators with relatively weak nonlinearities, i.e. a photon-photon interaction smaller than the loss rate. In such systems, photon modes with zero probability at dark sites are present at the single-particle level due to interference effects. In particular, we study the behavior of a cell with three coupled resonators as well as extended Lieb lattices in 1D and 2D. By considering a partial pumping scheme, with the driving field not applied to the dark sites, we predict that even in presence of relatively weak photon-photon interactions the nominally dark sites achieve a finite photonic population with strong correlations. We show that this is a consequence of biphoton and multiphoton states that in the absence of frustration would not be visible in the observables.

We report neutron scattering studies of the spin correlations of the geometrically frustrated pyrochlore Tb2Mo2O7 using single crystal samples. This material undergoes a spin-freezing transition below Tg~24 K, similar to Y2Mo2O7, and has little appar ent chemical disorder. Diffuse elastic peaks are observed at low temperatures, indicating short-range ordering of the Tb moments in an arrangement where the Tb moments are slightly rotated from the preferred directions of the spin ice structure. In addition, a Q-independent signal is observed which likely originates from frozen, but completely uncorrelated, Tb moments. Inelastic measurements show the absence of sharp peaks due to crystal field excitations. These data show how the physics of the Tb sublattice responds to the glassy behavior of the Mo sublattice with the associated effects of lattice disorder.
The promise of quantum computing lies in harnessing programmable quantum devices for practical applications such as efficient simulation of quantum materials and condensed matter systems. One important task is the simulation of geometrically frustrat ed magnets in which topological phenomena can emerge from competition between quantum and thermal fluctuations. Here we report on experimental observations of relaxation in such simulations, measured on up to 1440 qubits with microsecond resolution. By initializing the system in a state with topological obstruction, we observe quantum annealing (QA) relaxation timescales in excess of one microsecond. Measurements indicate a dynamical advantage in the quantum simulation over the classical approach of path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) fixed-Hamiltonian relaxation with multiqubit cluster updates. The advantage increases with both system size and inverse temperature, exceeding a million-fold speedup over a CPU. This is an important piece of experimental evidence that in general, PIMC does not mimic QA dynamics for stoquastic Hamiltonians. The observed scaling advantage, for simulation of frustrated magnetism in quantum condensed matter, demonstrates that near-term quantum devices can be used to accelerate computational tasks of practical relevance.
Single atoms absorb and emit light from a resonant laser beam photon by photon. We show that a single atom strongly coupled to an optical cavity can absorb and emit resonant photons in pairs. The effect is observed in a photon correlation experiment on the light transmitted through the cavity. We find that the atom-cavity system transforms a random stream of input photons into a correlated stream of output photons, thereby acting as a two-photon gateway. The phenomenon has its origin in the quantum anharmonicity of the energy structure of the atom-cavity system. Future applications could include the controlled interaction of two photons by means of one atom.

We investigate the steady-state phase diagram of the dissipative spin-1/2 XYZ model on a two-dimensional triangular lattice, in which each site is coupled to a local environment. By means of cluster mean-field approximation, we find that the steady-s tate phases of the system are rather rich, in particular there exist various types of nonuniform antiferromagnetic phases due to the geometrical frustration. As the short-range correlations included in the analysis, the numerical results show that the oscillatory phase disappears while the triantiferromagnetic and biantiferromagnetic phases remain to exist in the thermodynamic limit. Moreover, the existence of the spin-density-wave phase, which is missed by the single-site mean-field analysis, is also revealed by the spin-structure factor.
We present a linear-response nonlocal theory of the electronic conductance along the vertical (growth) direction of a semiconductor heterostructure embedded in a single-mode electromagnetic resonator in the absence of illumination. Our method readily applies to the general class of n-doped semiconductors with parabolic dispersion. The conductance depends on the ground-state properties and virtual collective polaritonic excitations that have been determined via a bosonic treatment in the dipole gauge. We show that, depending on the system parameters, the cavity vacuum effects can enhance or reduce significantly the dark vertical conductance with respect to the bare heterostructure.
