In the past 20 years, impressive progress has been made both experimentally and
theoretically in superconducting quantum circuits, which provide a platform for manipulating …

Recent advances in the coherent control of single quanta of light, photons, is a topic of prime
interest, and is discussed under the banner of quantum photonics. In the last decade, the …

The single-photon transport in a single-mode waveguide, coupled to a cavity embedded
with a two-level atom, is analyzed. The single-photon transmission and reflection …

We extend the input-output formalism of quantum optics to analyze few-photon transport in
waveguides with an embedded qubit. We provide explicit analytical derivations for one-and …

We report experimental observations of a large Bragg reflection from arrays of cold atoms
trapped near a one-dimensional nanoscale waveguide. By using an optical lattice in the …

Single dye molecules at cryogenic temperatures exhibit many spectroscopic phenomena
known from the study of free atoms and are thus promising candidates for experiments in …

We study the spontaneous emission of a cesium atom in the vicinity of a subwavelength-
diameter fiber. We show that the confinement of the guided modes and the degeneracy of …

State mapping between atoms and photons, and photon-photon interactions play an
important role in scalable quantum information processing. We consider the interaction of a …

We show theoretically that a directional dipole wave can be perfectly reflected by a single
pointlike oscillating dipole. Furthermore, we find that, in the case of a strongly focused plane …

We discuss an approach to the problem of creating a photon-number-resolving detector
using the giant Kerr nonlinearities available in electromagnetically induced transparency …
