We propose a review of recent developments on entanglement and nonclassical effects in
collective two-atom systems and present a uniform physical picture of the many predicted …

The processing of information and computation is undergoing a paradigmatic shift since the
realization of the enormous potential of quantum features to perform these tasks. Coupled …

The? eld that encompasses the term “quantum interference” combines a number of separate
concepts, and has a variety of manifestations in d-ferent areas of physics. In the sense …

By studying the transfer of excitation energy between dye molecules confined within an
optical microcavity, we demonstrate experimentally that Förster energy transfer is …

Within the framework of quantization of the macroscopic electromagnetic field, equations of
motion and an effective Hamiltonian for treating both the resonant dipole-dipole interaction …

We show that nonradiative interactions between atomic dipoles placed in a waveguide can
give rise to deterministic entanglement at ranges much larger than their resonant …

The control of open quantum systems and their associated quantum thermodynamic
properties is a topic of growing importance in modern quantum physics and quantum …

A unified theory of two-level atom coupling to vacuum field reservoirs with arbitrary mode-
density spectra is used to demonstrate that the quantum Zeno effect on excitation decay of …

We explore the dependence of the performance bounds of heat engines and refrigerators on
the initial quantum state and the subsequent evolution of their piston, modeled by a …

The dynamics of a collection of resonant atoms embedded inside an inhomogeneous
nondispersive and lossless dielectric is described with a dipole Hamiltonian that is based on …
