Quantum critical coupling conditions for zero single-photon transmission through a coupled atom-resonator-waveguide system
نویسندگان
چکیده
The quantum critical coupling conditions, where single-photon transmission goes to zero, for systems of a coupled ring resonator and atom in a one-dimensional single-mode waveguide are discussed. The quantum critical coupling conditions could be achieved even with nonvanishing intrinsic losses of the resonator and the atom, with intermode backscattering between the whispering-gallery modes of the ring resonator, and with time-reversal symmetry breaking. The energy transfer efficiency from the waveguide to the resonator and the atom is also discussed.

Theory of single-photon transport in a single-mode waveguide. II. Coupling to a whispering- gallery resonator containing a two-level atom
We analyze the single-photon transport in a single-mode waveguide coupled to a whispering-gallery-type resonator interacting with a two-level atom. The single-photon transport properties such as the transmission and reflection amplitudes, as well as the resonator and the atom responses, are solved exactly via a real-space approach. The treatment includes the intermode backscattering between the...

In this paper, we study the coherent transport of single photon in a coupled resonator waveguide (CRW) where two threelevel Λ-type atomic ensembles are embedded in two separate cavities. We show that it is possible to control the photon transmission and reflection coefficients by using classical control fields. In particular, we find that the total photon transmission and reflection are achieva...

We investigate the two-photon transport through a waveguide side coupling to a whispering-gallery-atom system. Using the Lehmann-Symanzik-Zimmermann reduction approach, we present the general formula for the two-photon processes including the two-photon scattering matrices, the wave functions, and the second order correlation functions of the outgoing photons. Based on the exact results of the ...
متن کاملControllable scattering of a single photon inside a one-dimensional resonator waveguide.
We analyze the coherent transport of a single photon, which propagates in a one-dimensional coupled-resonator waveguide and is scattered by a controllable two-level system located inside one of the resonators of this waveguide. Our approach, which uses discrete coordinates, unifies low and high energy effective theories for single-photon scattering. We show that the controllable two-level syste...
