Closely-spaced quantum emitters coherently sharing excitation can release their energy faster than suggested by a simple sum over their individual emission rates - a phenomenon known as superradiance. Here, we show that the assumption of…
Stimulated emission can be defined as the process when an incoming photon stimulates an additional quantum of energy from an atom into the same electromagnetic mode as the impinging photon. Hence, the two outgoing photons are identical. In…
