Abstract We study the interaction of a single photon in a surface plasmon polariton mode with multiple atoms. We propose a system of two atoms to achieve a tunable scattering from subscattering to superscattering regimes by changing the angle of the incident photon. We also demonstrate a perfect electromagnetically-induced transparency using two atoms with two-level structures. The proposed framework is efficiently scalable to a system with a large number of atoms and opens up the possibility of designing novel atom-based optical devices. We design an atomically thin parabolic mirror to focus single photons and form a quantum mirage in a cavity built from atoms.

多个原子对单个等离子体极化子的散射，用于光的面内控制

摘要 我们研究了表面等离子体激元模式中单个光子与多个原子的相互作用。我们提出了一个由两个原子组成的系统，通过改变入射光子的角度来实现从亚散射到超散射状态的可调散射。我们还使用具有两级结构的两个原子证明了完美的电磁感应透明度。所提出的框架可以有效地扩展到具有大量原子的系统，并开辟了设计新颖的基于原子的光学器件的可能性。我们设计了一个原子级薄的抛物面镜来聚焦单个光子并在由原子构成的腔体中形成量子海市蜃楼。
