Resonance fluorescence in a waveguide geometry

Şükrü Ekin Kocabaş, Eden Rephaeli, Shanhui Fan

We show how to calculate the first- and second-order statistics of the scattered fields for an arbitrary intensity coherent-state light field interacting with a two-level system in a waveguide geometry. Specifically, we calculate the resonance fluorescence from the qubit, using input-output formalism. We derive the transmission and reflection coefficients, and illustrate the bunching and antibunching of light that is scattered in the forward and backward directions, respectively. Our results agree with previous calculations on one- and two-photon scattering as well as those that are based on the master equation approach.

We extend the quantum input-output formalism for a qubit embedded in a waveguide to derive analytical formulas for the first- and second-order statistics of the scattered fields for an arbitrary intensity coherent state input.

We introduce a formalism to study resonance fluorescence of a driven quantum dot in a photonic crystal waveguide. Unusual Mollow triplets emerge due to simultaneous sampling of different parts of the slow-light band structure.
