The driven-dissipative Jaynes-Cummings lattice in the nonlinear dispersive regime

ORAL

Abstract

Experiments studying circuit-QED lattices have great potential for advancing our understanding of nonequilibrium many-body phenomena, including dissipative and dynamical phase transitions. One particular model realizable in this architecture is the driven-dissipative Jaynes-Cummings lattice. Motivated by the experimental measurements in the Houck lab, we theoretically investigate the dispersive regime including sub-leading nonlinear contributions from Kerr terms, employing a semi-classical approximation and numerics based on the quantum master equation. We explore the features of the experimentally detected crossover which is observed for an increase of the driving strength beyond a certain threshold.
