We study a system composed by a three-level giant atom (3GA), a waveguide initially in the vacuum state, and a single-mode cavity. The 3GA-cavity system is in a strong-coupling regime, and the distance between the coupling points is…
We report observations of superradiance for atoms trapped in the near field of a photonic crystal waveguide (PCW). By fabricating the PCW with a band edge near the D$_1$ transition of atomic cesium, strong interaction is achieved between…
