A Parity-Time (PT)-symmetric system with periodically varying-in-time gain and loss modeled by two coupled Schrodinger equations (dimer) is studied. It is shown that the problem can be reduced to a perturbed pendulum-like equation. This is…
Balanced gain and loss leads to stationary dynamics in open systems. This occurs naturally in PT-symmetric systems, where the imaginary part of the potential describing gain and loss is perfectly antisymmetric. While this case seems…
Resonant energy transfer from a donor to an acceptor is one of the most basic interactions between atomic and molecular systems. In real-life situations, the donor and acceptor are not isolated but in fact coupled to their environment and…
The properties of coupled emitters can differ dramatically from those of their individual constituents. Canonical examples include sub- and super-radiance, wherein the decay rate of a collective excitation is reduced or enhanced due to…
We study a system of two distant quantum emitters coupled via a one-dimensional waveguide where the electromagnetic field has a direction-dependent velocity. As a consequence, the onset of collective emission is non-simultaneous and, for…
The Hermitian part of the dipole-dipole interaction in infinite periodic arrays of two-level atoms yields an energy band of singly excited states. In this Letter, we show that a dispersion relation, $\omega_k-\omega_{k_\ex} \propto…
