Quantum emitters interacting with photonic band-gap materials lead to the appearance of qubit-photon bound states that mediate decoherence-free, tunable emitter-emitter interactions. Recently, it has been shown that when these band-gaps…

The interaction between the quantum emitter and topological photonic system makes both the emitter and the photon behave in exotic ways. We here study a system that a giant atom is coupled to two points of a one-dimensional topological…

Topological photonic edge states, protected by chiral symmetry, are attractive for guiding wave energy as they can allow for more robust guiding and greater control of light than alternatives; however, for photonics, chiral symmetry is…
Topological photonic structures exhibit chiral edge states that are robust to disorder and sharp bends. When coupled to quantum emitters, these edge states generate directional light emission that enables unprecedented control of…

We investigate quantum emitters (QEs) interacting with a photonic structured bath made of bilayer square lattices, where the resonance anti-crossing between the energy bands opens a symmetric middle energy gap. Due to the intrinsic chiral…
We show that two particles interacting via spin exchange exhibit topological features found in one-dimensional single particle lattice models. This is accomplished by absorbing all of the spatial degrees of freedom of the lattices into the…
Topological insulators are a new class of insulators in which a bulk gap for electronic excitations is generated by strong spin orbit coupling. These novel materials are distinguished from ordinary insulators by the presence of gapless…
