    • Dissipative phase transition in a central spin system 

      Kessler, E. M.; Giedke, G.; Imamoglu, A.; Yelin, Susanne; Lukin, Mikhail D.; Cirac, J. I. (American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
      We investigate dissipative phase transitions in an open central spin system. In our model the central spin interacts coherently with the surrounding many-particle spin environment and is subject to coherent driving and ...
    • Nuclear Spin Cooling Using Overhauser-Field Selective Coherent Population Trapping 

      Issler, Mena; Kessler, Eric M.; Giedke, Geza; Yelin, Susanne; Cirac, Ignacio; Lukin, Mikhail D.; Imamoglu, Atac (American Physical Society, 2010)
      We show that a quantum interference effect in optical absorption from two electronic spin states of a solid-state emitter can be used to prepare the surrounding environment of nuclear spins in well-defined states, thereby ...
    • Optical Superradiance from Nuclear Spin Environment of Single-Photon Emitters 

      Kessler, Eric; Yelin, Susanne; Lukin, Mikhail D.; Cirac, J. I.; Giedke, G. (American Physical Society (APS), 2010)
      We show that superradiant optical emission can be observed from the polarized nuclear spin ensemble surrounding a single-photon emitter such as a single quantum dot or nitrogen-vacancy center. The superradiant light is ...
    • Quantum interference between independent reservoirs in open quantum systems 

      Chan, Ching-Kit; Lin, Guin-Dar; Yelin, Susanne; Lukin, Mikhail D. (American Physical Society (APS), 2014)
      When a quantum system interacts with multiple reservoirs, the environmental effects are usually treated in an additive manner. We show that this assumption breaks down for non-Markovian environments that have finite memory ...
    • Quantum Metasurfaces with Atom Arrays 

      Bekenstein, Rivka; Pikovski, Igor; Pichler, Hannes; Shahmoon, E.; Yelin, Susanne; Lukin, M. D. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-03-30)
      Metasurfaces mold the flow of classical light waves by engineering sub-wavelength patterns from dielectric or metallic thin films. We introduce and analyze a method in which quantum operator-valued reflectivity can be used ...
