Superradiance, in which the collective behavior of emitters can generate enhanced radiative decay, was first predicted by a model, now known as the Dicke model, that contains a collection of two-level systems (the emitters) all interacting…
Collective emission behavior is usually described by the decay dynamics of the completely symmetric Dicke states. To study a more realistic scenario, we investigate alternative initial states inducing a more complex time evolution.…

We explore conditions for Dicke superradiance in a cloud of atoms by examining the Taylor series expansion of the photon emission rate at $t= 0$. By defining superradiance as an increasing photon emission rate for $t\sim 0$, we have…

We calculate the field eigenmodes of the superradiant emission from an ensemble of $N$ two-level atoms. While numerical techniques are effective due to the symmetry of the problem, we develop also an analytical method to approximates the…

Two-photon light-matter interactions exhibit distinctive features such as spectral collapse. The two-photon Dicke model has been reported to exhibit a superradiant phase which could be useful in quantum applications. Here we show that this…

The driven Dicke model, with interesting quantum phases induced by parameterized driving, has been intensively studied in cavities, where permutation symmetry applies due to the atoms' equal coupling to the field and identical interaction.…
The Dicke model describes an ensemble of two-level atoms that are coupled to a confined light mode of an optical cavity. Above a critical coupling, the cavity becomes macroscopically occupied, and the system enters the superradiant phase.…
The Dicke model is a paradigmatic quantum-optical model describing the interaction of a collection of two-level systems with a single bosonic mode. Effective implementations of this model made it possible to observe the emergence of…
Fully-excited two-level atoms separated by less than the transition wavelength cooperatively emit light in a short burst, a phenomenon called superradiance by R. Dicke in 1954. The burst is characterized by a maximum intensity scaling with…
Experiments in dense, ultracold gases of rubidium Rydberg atoms show a considerable decrease of the radiative excited state lifetimes compared to dilute gases. This accelerated decay is explained by collective and cooperative effects,…
Dicke superradiance is an example of emergence of macroscopic quantum coherence via correlated dissipation. Starting from an initially incoherent state, a collection of excited atoms synchronizes as they decay, generating a macroscopic…
The Dicke model exhibits a variety of phase transitions. The quantum phase transition from the normal phase to the super-radiant phase is marked by a dramatic change in the scaling of the participation ratio. We find that the ground state…
We present theoretical results for superradiance, i.e. the collective coherent decay of a radiating system, in semiconductor structures. An optically active region can become superradiant if a strong magnetic field is applied. Pumping of…
We study the dynamics of a driven Dicke model, where the collective spin is rotated with a constant velocity around a fixed axis. The time evolution of the mean photon number and of the atomic inversion is calculated using, on the one hand,…
