The setting of Moessbauer nuclei embedded in thin-film cavities has facilitated an aspiring platform for x-ray quantum optics as shown in several recent experiments. Here, we generalize the theoretical model of this platform that we developed earlier [Phys. Rev. A 88, 043828 (2013)]. The theory description is extended to cover multiple nuclear ensembles and multiple modes in the cavity. While the extensions separately do not lead to qualitatively new features, their combination gives rise to cooperative effects between the different nuclear ensembles and distinct spectral signatures in the observables. A related experiment by Roehlsberger et al. [Nature 482, 199 (2012)] is successfully modeled, the scalings derived with semiclassical methods are reproduced, and a microscopic understanding of the setting is obtained with our quantum mechanical description.

We constructed a cavity QED system with a diamagnetic atom of 171Yb and performed projective measurements on a single nuclear spin. Since Yb has no electronic spin and has 1/2 nuclear spin, the procedure of spin polarization and state verification ca n be dramatically simplified compared with the pseudo spin-1/2 system. By enhancing the photon emission rate of the 1S0-3P1 transition, projective measurement is implemented for an atom with the measurement time of T_meas = 30us. Unwanted spin flip as well as dark counts of the detector lead to systematic error when the present technique is applied for the determination of diagonal elements of an unknown spin state, which is delta|beta|^2 < 2 * 10^-2. Fast measurement on a long-lived qubit is key to the realization of large-scale one-way quantum computing.
We propose a quantum metrology scheme in a cavity QED setup to achieve the Heisenberg limit. In our scheme, a series of identical two-level atoms randomly pass through and interact with a dissipative single-mode cavity. Different from the entanglemen t based Heisenberg limit metrology scheme, we do not need to prepare the atomic entangled states before they enter into the cavity. We show that the initial atomic coherence will induce an effective driving to the cavity field, whose steady state is an incoherent superposition of orthogonal states, with the superposition probabilities being dependent on the atom-cavity coupling strength. By measuring the average photon number of the cavity in the steady state, we demonstrate that the root-mean-square of the fluctuation of the atom-cavity coupling strength is proportional to $1/N_c^2$ ($N_c$ is the effective atom number interacting with the photon in the cavity during its lifetime). It implies that we have achieved the Heisenberg limit in our quantum metrology process. We also discuss the experimental feasibility of our theoretical proposal. Our findings may find potential applications in quantum metrology technology.
We investigate a cavity quantum electrodynamic effect, where the alignment of two-dimensional freely rotating optical dipoles is driven by their collective coupling to the cavity field. By exploiting the formal equivalence of a set of rotating dipole s with a polymer we calculate the partition function of the coupled light-matter system and demonstrate it exhibits a second order phase transition between a bunched state of isotropic orientations and a stretched one with all the dipoles aligned. Such a transition manifests itself as an intensity-dependent shift of the polariton mode resonance. Our work, lying at the crossroad between cavity quantum electrodynamics and quantum optomechanics, is a step forward in the on-going quest to understand how strong coupling can be exploited to influence matter internal degrees of freedom.
In this paper, we investigate the energy spectrum and coherent dynamical process in a cavity-QED setup with a moving emitter, which is subject to a harmonic potential. We find that the vibration of the emitter will induce the effective Kerr and optom echanical interactions. With the assistance of Bogliubov operators approach, we obtain the energy spectrum of the system exactly. Furthermore, we show that the dynamics of the system exhibit a two-frequency Rabi oscillation behavior. We explain such behavior by optomechanical interaction induced quantum transition between emitter-cavity dressed states. We hope that the interaction between cavity mode and moving emitter will provide a versatile platform to explore more exotic effects and potential applications in cavity-QED scenario.
The interaction of an ensemble of $N$ two-level atoms with a single mode electromagnetic field is described by the Tavis-Cummings model. There, the collectively enhanced light-matter coupling strength is given by $g_N = sqrt{N} bar{g}_1$, where $bar{ g}_1$ is the ensemble-averaged single-atom coupling strength. Formerly, this model has been employed to describe and to analyze numerous cavity-based experiments. Here, we show that this is only justified if the effective scattering rate into non-cavity modes is negligible compared to the cavitys free-spectral range. In terms of experimental parameters, this requires that the optical depth of the ensemble is low, a condition that is violated in several state-of-the-art experiments. We give quantitative conditions for the validity of the Tavis-Cummings model and derive a more general Hamiltonian description that takes into account the cascaded interaction of the photons with all consecutive atoms. We show that the predictions of our model can differ quantitatively and even qualitatively from those obtained with the Tavis-Cummings model. Finally, we present experimental data, for which the deviation from the predictions of the Tavis-Cummings model is apparent. Our findings are relevant for all experiments in which optically dense ensembles of quantum emitters are coupled to an optical resonator.
