Strong coupling between single atoms and non-transversal photons
@article{Volz2013StrongCB, title={Strong coupling between single atoms and non-transversal photons}, author={J{\"u}rgen Volz and Christian Junge and Danny O'Shea and Arno Rauschenbeutel}, journal={2013 Conference on Lasers \& Electro-Optics Europe \& International Quantum Electronics Conference CLEO EUROPE/IQEC}, year={2013}, pages={1-1} }
The interaction between single quantum emitters and non-transversally polarized photons for which the electric field vector amplitude has a significant component in the direction of propagation is investigated. Even though this situation seems to be at odds with the description of light as a transverse wave, it regularly occurs when interfacing or manipulating emitters with non-paraxial, guided, or evanescent light. Here, this phenomenon for the case of single atoms that strongly interact with…
