Scientists Discover New Quantum Optics Behaviors with Matter Waves
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Phys.org
Researchers led by Dominik Schneble have discovered new collective behaviors in quantum optics using matter waves, revealing novel cooperative radiative phenomena in synthetic atom arrays. Their work, published in Nature Physics, explores super- and subradiant dynamics by manipulating ultracold atoms in an optical lattice, offering insights into quantum information science. This study challenges traditional assumptions about photon behavior in quantum systems, demonstrating unprecedented control over subradiant states and highlighting the potential of ultracold matter waves in quantum optics research.
