Complementary Collective Spin Descriptions of Superradiant Ramsey Spectroscopy

Gao, Ke-Xin, Yuan Zhang, Shi‐Lei Su +3 more

A recent experiment demonstrated delayed superradiance from strontium-88 atoms, which are coupled to a longitudinal mode of a cavity while being excited by laser pulses propagating along a transversal direction [Nat. Commun. 15, 1084 (2024)]. A coherent picture of the atomic ensemble dynamics in this experiment requires complementary representations of the external driving dynamics and the superradiant dynamics. To complement previous analyses, we introduce these representations by considering in-phase and out-of-phase superpositions of transverse collective spin components of two atomic sub-ensembles, and analyze the dynamics with the corresponding collective Dicke states and Bloch vectors. This approach also explains Ramsey spectroscopy experiments with the ensemble, and it may be employed to explore other phenomena, such as weak-to-strong coupling phase transitions and triggered superradiance.

Control of emission interval and timing in triggered periodic superradiance

Hideaki Hara, Riku Omoto, N. Sasao +6 more

To achieve more controllable development of coherence in solids, we investigated the effect of a trigger laser tuned to the superradiance transition wavelength on periodic superradiance observed in an Er:YSO crystal. For period control, applying the trigger laser reduced both the superradiance period and its variance, demonstrating enhanced controllability of coherence development dynamics. As the trigger laser power increased, both the period and the number of emitted superradiance photons decreased while maintaining a proportional relationship. This behavior is explained by a reduced superradiance threshold under a constant excitation rate and is reproduced by numerical simulations based on the Maxwell-Bloch equations. For timing control, we found that superradiance could be triggered even when the excitation laser alone was insufficient. This enabled us to control the emission timing of superradiance using short trigger pulses and provided a device capable of generating superradiance at desired timing.
