We present a detailed quantum theory and simulations of a few-photon Fock state pulse interacting with a two-level system (TLS) in a waveguide. For a rectangular pulse shape, we present an exact temporal scattering theory for the…
Quantum nonlinearity is an essential ingredient for many quantum technologies, but often the nonlinearity is too weak to be exploited at the few-photon level. However, few photons interacting strongly with single quantum emitters in a…
We present two different methods for modelling non-Markovian quantum light-matter interactions in waveguide QED systems, using matrix product states (MPSs) and a space-discretized waveguide (SDW) model. After describing the general theory…
We present a matrix product state (MPS) method for including decoherence processes in calculations involving waveguide quantum electrodynamics (waveguide QED) using density matrices. The approach is based on collision quantum optics, where…
We study the dynamical light emission from few-photon Fock states in waveguide-QED with a chiral two-level system. We first investigate the time dynamics of the system by calculating the emitter population and illustrate the breakdown of…
Dynamic coupling of cavities to a quantum network is of major interest to distributed quantum information processing schemes based on cavity quantum electrodynamics. This can be achieved by active tuning a mediating atom-cavity system. In…
We investigate quantum dynamics of a generic model of light-matter interaction in the context of high impedance waveguides, focusing on the behavior of the emitted photonic states, in the framework of the spin-boson model Quantum quenches…
A superconducting qubit in a waveguide behaves as a point-like nonlinear element. If irradiated with nearly resonant microwave pulses, the qubit undergoes quantum evolution and generates coherent fields at sideband frequencies due to…
Is it possible to infer the time evolving quantum state of a multichromophoric system from a sequence of two-dimensional electronic spectra (2D-ES) as a function of waiting time? Here we provide a positive answer for a tractable model…
We study analytically the dynamics of cavity QED nodes in a practical quantum network. Given a single 3-level $\Lambda$-type atom or quantum dot coupled to a micro-cavity, we derive several necessary and sufficient criteria for the coherent…
Ultra-short pulses propagating in nonlinear nanophotonic waveguides can simultaneously leverage both temporal and spatial field confinement, promising a route towards single-photon nonlinearities in an all-photonic platform. In this…
We employ a cascaded system approach to numerically simulate the interaction of photon pulses with a two-level scatterer in a chiral waveguide QED setup. It is possible to expand any pure state of two photons as a superposition of…
We present a time dependent quantum calculation of the scattering of a few-photon pulse on a single atom. The photon wave packet is assumed to propagate in a transversely strongly confined geometry, which ensures strong atom-light coupling…
We develop a new computational tool and framework for characterizing the scattering of photons by energy-nonconserving Hamiltonians into unidirectional (chiral) waveguides, for example, with coherent pulsed excitation. The temporal…
Genuine quantum-mechanical effects are readily observable in modern optomechanical systems comprising bosonic ("classical") optical resonators. Here we describe unique features and advantages of optical two-level systems, or qubits, for…
We theoretically investigate the quantum scattering of a single-photon pulse interacting with an ensemble of $\Lambda$-type three-level atoms coupled to a one-dimensional waveguide. With an effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, we study the…
Waveguide quantum electrodynamics (WQED) provides a powerful platform for exploring quantum optical phenomena by enhancing atom-photon interactions through photon confinement in a waveguide. Here we investigate the photon-scattering…
We develop an approach to light-matter coupling in waveguide QED based upon scattering amplitudes evaluated via Dyson series. For optical states containing more than single photons, terms in this series become increasingly complex and we…
Quantum state tomography (QST) is the gold standard technique for obtaining an estimate for the state of small quantum systems in the laboratory. Its application to systems with more than a few constituents (e.g. particles) soon becomes…
The dynamics of waveguide-QED systems involving coherent time-delayed feedback give rise to a hierarchy of multi-time correlations within the Heisenberg picture due to the induced non-Markovianity. We propose to perform a projection onto a…
