Spontaneous emission

Two-photon spontaneous emission of an atom in a cosmic string background

It is well known that the vicinities of an atomic system may substantially affect its radiative properties. In this work, we consider the influence of a cosmic string background in the spontaneous emission of an excited atom. We start by computing …

Entangled two-plasmon generation in carbon nanotubes and graphene-coated wires

We investigate the two-plasmon spontaneous decay of a quantum emitter near single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and graphene-coated wires (GCWs). We demonstrate efficient, enhanced generation of two-plasmon entangled states in SWCNTs due to the …

Quantum two-photon emission in a photonic cavity

We derive an expression for the two-photon spontaneous emission (TPSE) rate of an excited quantum emitter in the presence of arbitrary bodies in its vicinities. After investigating the influence of a perfectly conducting plate on the TPSE spectral …
