Pronounced non-Markovian features in multiply excited, multiple emitter waveguide QED: Retardation induced anomalous population trapping
Alexander Carmele, Nikolett Német, Victor Canela, A. S. Parkins
Abstract
The authors present a breakdown of the Markovian approximation in multiple-emitter and multiple-excitation waveguide-QED systems. The paper show that triply-excited initial states of three emitters do not decay completely if the finite light propagation time between the emitters is properly taken into account.
