Single-Photon Behavior in Atomic Lattices
Analysis
Key Takeaways
- •The dimensionality of an atomic lattice significantly impacts single-photon behavior.
- •1D and 2D lattices exhibit radiative properties with oscillating decay rates.
- •3D lattices are non-radiative, enabling coherent transport.
- •The research provides insights into cooperative effects at the single-photon level.
“Three-dimensional lattices are found to be fundamentally non-radiative due to the inhibition of spontaneous emission, with decay only at discrete Bragg resonances.”
