Simultaneous super- and subradiant light emission of two stored ion in free space — •Stefan Richter1, Sebastian Wolf2, Joachim vom Zanthier1, and Ferdinand Schmidt-Kaler21Institut für Optik, Information und Photonik, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Staudtstraße 1, 91058 Erlangen — 2QUANTUM, Institut für Physik, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, 55128 Mainz, Germany

Modification of spontaneous decay in space and time is a central topic of quantum physics. It has been predominantly investigated in cavity quantum electrodynamic systems. Altered spontaneous decay may equally result from correlations among the emitters in free space, as observed in super- and subradiance. Yet, preparation of an entangled quantum state and the resulting modified emission pattern has not been observed so far due to the lack of ultra-fast multi-pixelated cameras. Using two trapped ions in free space, we prepare their state via projective measurements and observe their corresponding collective photon emission. Depending on the direction of detection of the first photon, we record fundamentally different emission patterns, including super- and subradiance [1]. Our results demonstrate that the detection of a single photon may fundamentally determine the subsequent collective emission pattern of an atomic array, here represented by its most elementary building block of two atoms stored in an ion trap.
