Photonic synthetic materials provide an opportunity to explore the role of microscopic
quantum phenomena in determining macroscopic material properties. There are, however …

Photon-photon scattering in vacuum is extremely weak. However, strong effective
interactions between single photons can be realized by employing strong light-matter …

Topological photonics is a rapidly emerging field of research in which geometrical and
topological ideas are exploited to design and control the behavior of light. Drawing …

This article reviews recent theoretical and experimental advances in the fundamental
understanding and active control of quantum fluids of light in nonlinear optical systems. In …

Using a well-controlled quantum system to simulate complex quantum matter is an idea that
has been around for 30 years and put into practice in systems of ultracold atoms for more …

In this review we discuss the works in the area of quantum simulation and many-body
physics with light, from the early proposals on equilibrium models to the more recent works …

The past few years have witnessed the concrete and fast spreading of quantum
technologies for practical computation and simulation. In particular, quantum computing …

Enhancing optical nonlinearities so that they become appreciable on the single photon level
and lead to nonclassical light fields has been a central objective in quantum optics for many …

Abstract The Jaynes‐Cummings model describes the coupling between photons and a
single two‐level atom in a simplified representation of light‐matter interactions. In circuit …

The coupling of two macroscopic quantum states through a tunnel barrier gives rise to
Josephson phenomena such as Rabi oscillations, the ac and dc effects, or macroscopic self …
